In Gowan Ring
Kingdom of the Shades (Revisited)
[Verse 1]
Without paper, without ink
Would you set out to think
A song that never was sung
With words that were not spoken
On lines that have not hung
The signs that leave no token
Stray with me in the strands of intricate layers
Strong and swift, swim within this stream
[Verse 2]
Within the whorls that blink
About an infinite ocean
Stars grow and shrink
Collapsing in slow motion
Stay with me, the spell of a lucid motion
Calm and sweet, swim within this dream
[Verse 3]
With all the world you spin
To charm the noumenous deep
In bone and blood and skin
A story safe in keep
Sway with me in swing of alternate weather
Strong and swift, swim within this stream
[Verse 4]
Wide word in tone will speak
Beyond a strange commotion
In thought that gathers and lеaks
Strains of cogent notion
Lay with me in swoon of elaboratе feather
Calm and sweet, swim within this dream
[Verse 5]
Without ink without paper
Would you set out to taper
A song that never was sung
With words that were not spoken
On lines that have not hung
The signs that leave no token
Play with me in fields of nebulous cover
Strong and swift, swim within this stream
