Soothsayer

I rose and raised, the others with me, too I shared the ancient wisdom And taught the ways to be I sang the charms of stars And sowed the land with strength I set the abodes for men And steered the rightful roads Within my being sings the god on high The glimmer of stars in my bloodstream I am the abyss, I am the bridge I am the sky, I am the land I feel the communion Of the largest and the least The way from death to life The path of stone and gold I live on wings of eagle I know the secrets of seas My forms countless Like words, names and stars I’ve been here from the beginning Echoes and tones I understand Eternal poems of nonexistence The birthwords of time’s beginning
