Sphinx
surpassed celestial gates of light,
i left the worldly spheres behind;
into atmospheres unknown
to the planet of silence.
ancient tales have told
of sphinx on his throne,
create an aura unique.
his superior mind ... doesn't need space or time.
pass through rooms of 'now' and 'past',
and leave the future way behind.
move through dimensions unexplained -
the palace of eternity.
wisdom's books i search
in these temples of sphinx.
pyramides of peace -
meaningless time ... no such thing as time.
quietly trace him slowly,
and finally i confront him.
he silently gazes with a piercing look;
i'm overpowered and struck by anxiety.
his charisma enlightens me,
his eyes tell tales i couldn't see.
sphinx is superior to my fate;
he motions me, though no word is said.
one last glance, he turns away, and spreads his wings.
slowly rising, soars up to the heights.
the brightest star yet seen comes into sight.
ancient tales have told
of sphinx on his throne,
create an aura unique.
his superior mind ... doesn't need space or time.
