Daedalus Rising

There, over there Has gone, goes and will go The copper sun Tarnishes with the year's tears The golden golden copper sun Old eldest dead Over the blue milky sea sky Loss and lost and losing Do not weep All this is passing All the birds wing and fall Through the heavens The cloudy clouds Of snow of dew and of smoke A shuddering reflection Vanishing with the dropped stone Oh, I wait under the spaces Under the molten star rain The flashing falling planets Do not weep All this is passing Do not weep All this is passing So high I could come So far I shall fall Daedalus broken Daedalus falling By the tooth stones His shapes bends And makes s smiling bow He careers and spiral down Falls, falls He waves words of farewell "Oh, do not weep All of this passing To fail is human Do not weep To fall is human All this is passing To hope is human Do not weep As the sound disappears As the rain falls As the sky parts As my tears fall Do not weep I shall wait for you" Daedalus broken Daedalus falling Do not weep All this is falling Do not weep All this is falling Do not weep All this is passing... Do not weep All this is passing...
