When you go chasing waterfalls, I

Can guide you back. I Am

Your Jiminy Cricket, the

Whispered voice of your loving mother

Reminding you to wash behind your ears. Of

The two roads, I can lead you away from sorrows

And to the path most well tread. I

Am the keeper of the light, and am

Ready to share it with only the most pure, the

Truest among you. But I am not the ender

Of your frustrations or your pain, as of

Course you are still responsible for your own grief

There is only we, no I.

In paradise we eat the best berries and cream.

But not from that of which we were warned. The

Fruits contain a forbidden bud,

Of which He told us “Fuck around and

Find out.” We don’t see the

Point in learning of the trouble that may blossom

There is only we, no I.

In paradise we eat the best berries and cream.

But not from that of which we were warned. The

Worm shaped friend came yesterday late,

Pushing us to claim our power through harvests falling.

Besides, why should we trust a talking leaf?

This carriage only moves forward because of me. I

Drive it with strength and confidence, fostered since AM

One by Ein Sof. To stand in my way is to make thy

End, for I do what I Will, as the priest

Implores us. There is no other way and

Who am I to let such foolishness as thy

Follies block me from the pen of the poet.

This carriage only moves forward because of me. I

Drive it with strength and confidence, fostered since AM

Two by the ancestors. They compel me to listen to thy

Advice, for you are not simply a lowly serf

But full of wisdom and cunning and

Those things that I sometimes lack. Thy

Gift to me of those things will make me a king.
