Notes About The Poem
I have put the original write ancient modern With a slightly altered new version Something old something new For the contest of that name Thank you for reading!

Something Old Something New

I've found theres more to introspection 
On the flying wings of life

As I try to plumb deeper depths with my
Halo-genic light

Yet I never see the shadows, though I suppose
They must be there?

Yet as long as they don't reflect on me
I really couldn't care!

Ancient modern (original poem)
I've found there's more to introspection
On the flying wings of like

As I tried to plumb its recesses
With my halo-genic light

I've never seen the shadows though I suppose they 
Must be there, 

Yet as long as don't reflect on me I don't
See I should really care

I don't know this song at all, but it's cool that you chose it and did your own version, Joe.
