What a weak shell this form, these hands who could not grasp lightening what hope could mortals strive to catch thunder in a bottle in this flesh, these mere bones? But nearer to divine in the striving As all fire reaches to the sky in burning hope to become a storm. What wonders may elijah-like rise from this inferno Or raptuous fury emerge dauntless, borne? I live, I die.. I am reborn.
What a weak shell
this form, these hands
who could not grasp lightening
what hope could mortals strive
to catch thunder in a bottle
in this flesh, these mere bones?
But nearer to divine in the striving
As all fire reaches to the sky
in burning hope to become a storm.
What wonders may elijah-like rise from this inferno
Or raptuous fury emerge dauntless, borne?
I live, I die.. I am reborn.
