The Continuance

Rudyard Kipling
"Cities and Thrones and Powers"
Cities and Thrones and Powers
Stand in Time's eye,
Almost as long as flowers,
Which daily die:
But, as new buds put forth
To glad new men,
Out of the spent and unconsidered Earth
The Cities rise again.
This season's Daffodil,
She never hears
What change, what chance, what chill,
Cut down last year's;
But with bold countenance,
And knowledge small,
Esteems her seven days' continuance,
To be perpetual.
So Time that is o'er-kind
To all that be,
Ordains us e'en as blind,
As bold as she:
That in our very death,
And burial sure,
Shadow to shadow, well persuaded, saith,
"See how our works endure!"

To Be King

Emily Dickinson, 1830 - 1886
"We never know how high we are"
We never know how high we are
Till we are called to rise;
And then, if we are true to plan,
Our statures touch the skies—
The Heroism we recite
Would be a daily thing,
Did not ourselves the Cubits warp
For fear to be a King—

Sun Of The Sleepless

George Gordon Byron
"Sun Of the Sleepless"
Sun of the Sleepless! melancholy star!
Whose tearful beam glows tremulously far,
That show’st the darkness thou canst not dispel,
How like art thou to Joy remembered well!
So gleams the past, the light of other days,
Which shines but warms not with its powerless rays:
A night-beam Sorrow watcheth to behold,
Distinct, but distant – clear – but, oh, how cold!

Red Riding Hood

Gabrielle Wagner
"Red Riding Hood"
You are good at
at Hiding your steps
You hide in the
Silence of the night
In trees and grass
You are a wild lost beast
And you don't want to be found
CHORUS
I'm walking on your footsteps
Why?
Because you are a different beast
You should not exist
I'm walking on your footsteps
Why am I doing this?
I follow you the whole life
When
I find you, you will die
I walked the path
In my dreams and your long steppes
I read your mind
I don't know why I was blind
With you
I walk around in woods
(the) Beast - it's me.
CHORUS
I'm walking in your footsteps
Why?
Because you are a different beast
You are should not be
I'm walking in your footsteps
Why am I doing this?
I follow you the whole life
When
I find you, you will live
