`
The world won't ever let me rest
In angry blackness
Ever understand my misfortunes, & yet
Like the signal from a bell, alone & distant
You make everything your own in an instant
As you carry your own weight upend alone
& prepare in time an asylum for mankind
& we will have every spark
Burn out like Joan of Arc
& with prison, poison, rope & knife
Keep you from blazing to life
So you carry a warmer light
Clothe yourselves in your flags & color of night
Even though your flowers wither my eyes
& your letters are lost in the signs
We hold on, we hold still
we hold fast
As eagle, as serpent
I know we could have every spark
Light up like Joan of Arc
Despite prison, poison, rope & knife
Have you blaze into life
I know we could have every spark
Light up like Joan of Arc
Despite prison, poison, rope & knife
Have you blaze into life

[@nils191]

"This had Zarathustra said to his heart when the sun stood at noon-tide.
Then he looked inquiringly aloft,--for he heard above him the sharp call of
a bird. And behold! An eagle swept through the air in wide circles, and
on it hung a serpent, not like a prey, but like a friend: for it kept
itself coiled round the eagle's neck."

[@Pugmaster-ef1ii]
