Look down to the ground and mirror your mother
Sidewalks and pavement and buildings that cover
Will crumble to dust
Like so many Kings
To be re-absorbed and used once more for other things

Always slide sideways
Obstacles overcome.

We seem so fragile just tissue and bone
How can we fight what is written in stone?
Can you see the way?
The side way to run
So you can dance the dance of freedom Beneath the Sun.
