Wild Are the Boys of Dune

Partnered with the light is ever darkness Where wild boys of dune collect themselves In chariots of steel inside the mind Cocooned from what once was but now is gone They ride clear off the edge of night Rising to the sun by lost horizons With music loud. With silence all about Cliffs are less forgiving in the clouds Off they go into the fall of men Leaving only dust behind as a reminder Of a place they might have found back then Is that Icarus or Daedalus up ahead In wings and wax still melting in the sun? Is there a flight path to heaven less conspicuous? Partnered with the light is ever darkness Where wild are the boys of dune inside Riding chariots of steel inside the mind Where sand inside the shoes is an illusion Drifting higher to the mounds of silence Into horizons once described, are done
