Voice In the Dark Part 2

Everything Is human, Everything Is mortal, Everything Makes mistakes, Everything Is foolish, And above All of that, Everything Knows not all, Such sense must Not be true Are you sure Old rocks break To form new Rocks, it is The same as Old humans Preparing Young humans. Landscapes can And will die Some day near Computers Machines too Make mistakes Foolish things Such as ants Flies spiders Search homes for Food shelter Instead find Only death Even us Humans who Stand tall as Kings over Animals Know not all -Silent as -One can be -The man was Rebuttal You have none? First time for Everything I have taught You the first Now its time For the Last Lesson, so It shall be. This lesson May be a Far cry from The first one, A bit more Obscure too, But your eyes, Will speak truth For this one, Here it is … Things like to Come in threes As you see Us, you know This be truth There, There are Your answers Here is my Knowledge friend Do with it As you must But wait I -Said the man -Hare to late -As the cloaked -Figure with -The candle -Brought out -Its mouth to -Blow light from -Everyone’s -Sight sound mind -Just before -The mouth took -Its final blow -A glimps reached -The mans eye -The mouth it -Belonged to -A woman’s -Who’s mouth draped -In scratches, -Scares and burns -Her mouth stood -In front of -Candles flame -And said soft -Faint and weak -Now you know -Deity -As she blew -Candle flame -Out from sight.
