Innocuous crime Spare some time To decode the faults of mind Set in parchment and ink Fallen to dust in the wind Behind lost eyes in a wink Caught in tradition’s mire To seek the burns of novelty’s fires As being turns to dust Glorious shine is effaced in the rust Of changes gone by Still no right answer nigh Dogmas eclipse Chains rattle and drift All directions under the sun A compass superior to none Are perceptions unique or uniform To culture borne? Or are answers forever amiss A world built in chaotic bliss

Innocuous crime Spare some time To decode the faults of mind Set in parchment and ink Fallen to dust in the wind Behind lost eyes in a wink Caught in tradition’s mire To seek the burns of novelty’s fires As being turns to dust Glorious shine is effaced in the rust Of changes gone by Still no right answer nigh Dogmas eclipse Chains rattle and drift All directions under the sun A compass superior to none Are perceptions unique or uniform To culture borne? Or are answers forever amiss A world built in chaotic bliss
