Barefoot walking in the night
the moist ground get the feet cold
you risk slipping on a puddle of mud
on the dark path through
the knowledge to the self consciousness

spending the days far from the light
you’re in a cage surrounded by
all the false myths they’ve told you
outside the fanes where the kings and their servants
are strutting about among their lies
thinking how the people can fall into
their wiles.
