| Chapter one:
Land of eternal beauty.
How is it possible
That this child
In rags begging,
And the other
Dressed like a princess?
And yet
Which one is happier?
I feel at home
With those cripples and beggars
And in the crystal halls
Sorrow approaches
Mind's cage
Seeing my beggar's escape
Begging from hollow tables
For the invisible food
Of belief
Interrupted
By the land of eternal beauty.
Chapter two:
In silence there are no words…
All things intricately linked
In graceful intensity
Of love
Rising
Surrounded by nothingness
