Lost

A stitch in time
A crack in reality
In search of a door
That cannot be seen

The naked eye alone is useless for this task
So before the door we must first look back

Search for the “All-Seeing-Eye”, I was told
It will be the key to the next greater find
Unfortunately, it will come with a price
Only one man was perfect
No matter how hard you try
It’s a one shot deal, failure renders you blind

A spark of evil is arced into us all
This is why we cannot hear the call
Now your ears have failed you, too

-It takes an “All-Seeing-Eye”
To find a never seen door-

The naked eye alone will not help you

-Seek and you will find,
But not what you’re looking for-

So you’re left with nothing, not even a clue

-Boz-
