Spin and weave the future
\nSoft within your hands
\nSpurn the fate\u2019s illusions
\nAs the truth demands.<\/p>\n

Cup Always for a moment
\nWatch its wings gently beat
\nRelease it to the currents
\nAs time follows dark and fleet.<\/p>\n

The stillness of forever
\nAnchors time\u2019s fleeting drive
\nAnd the reflected light of heaven
\nImpells the living again to strive.<\/p>\n

Questions lurk in spirits
\nThat seek the future\u2019s weave
\nYet the hands that work most truely
\nJust know that they believe.<\/p>\n

They see, however dimly,
\nA bright and shining way,
\nAnd follow, however grimly,
\nThe path from night today.<\/p>\n
