There sits a midnight pauper with nothing much to eat Along comes a young man; marching to his own, fine beat The pauper raises his hand, tries to catch His attention The young man ignores him, looking ahead (maybe into another dimension) His eyes dreamy, His eyes glassy Walks away from the pauper’s misery Without so much as a thought Drowned in his own personal reverie The pauper keeps staring His mouth open wide His expression spelt amazement His eyes terrified For what he saw in the young man Wasn’t as disturbing; as what he didn’t see, Walking into the darkness, Was just a pair of eyes, and a pair of feet.

A Stitch in Time
There sits a midnight pauper with nothing much to eat Along comes a young man; marching to his own, fine beat The pauper raises his hand, tries to catch His attention The young man ignores him, looking ahead (maybe into another dimension) His eyes dreamy, His eyes glassy Walks away from the pauper’s misery Without so much as a thought Drowned in his own personal reverie The pauper keeps staring His mouth open wide His expression spelt amazement His eyes terrified For what he saw in the young man Wasn’t as disturbing; as what he didn’t see, Walking into the darkness, Was just a pair of eyes, and a pair of feet.
