I , yes I the traveller have long seeked the moon , the stars and the sun , often they have slipped my gaze , now only a blanket covers my eyes ( blinded by the sun ) Have you met the story teller of the great ‘ I am ‘ ? of his tales should I tremble , in his halls the lost do not seek , the sick and poor enter his halls with praise . For even this Gods patience will one day like sand fall from his blood stained hands onto beaches castles were built  . Now begone with you for even I must sleep , and find comforts no man should wish . For the monsters of the deep have found me , Lust ,pride , bitterness and fear . Look my jailer comes with chains you can hear that drag down the passage on this dark satanic night . Sage if you see him tell him what might have been , and sorrows only purpose is love . Are you still there ? Dam what’s wrong with my eyes ? I used to visit the fairground , Preachers like Wolves used to say ‘ come this way ‘ ‘ come that for a shilling , for a crown ‘. The musics stopped , I can’t hear the music and what of the great hall ? The story teller I must find on this blessed night . Now a chain mail of Norman men rise in my sea of despair , they like skeleton snakes rattle like memories in my head . Surrender or capture the light ? Holy Spirit my demons confront me and darken my night , for this must end in heaven or hell I bid it the light .
