Blindfold led to the crossroad of Thebes ,
dreaming of the symbol Pi .
A winding dirt track through a valley ,
to smoke curling small chimney cabin .

Inside , a man with a feline head ,
Salvador Dali cat's whiskers ,
" In the morning the pyramids are pointing up ! "
Strange exclamation issued forth from his mouth .

Triangles and crosses mark the land outside ,
burnt into ****** grass .
Villagers utter prophecy and gather ,
sing ancestors to battle , and cry into their wine .

Tender is the night of redemption ,
or sweet angel's breath .
while saints are offered on wheels to the sky ,
and for each dying child is a chorus of lies .
