MIRRORS OF LIFE
INTO THE LIVING IF YOU DARE
NOW'S THE TIME TO BE BUSY
IN THE QUELLING OF THE MASS,
AND QUIET THE INWARD, AWFUL HOWLINGS
THOSE UGLY SOUNDS LOW AND CRASS.
PUT THEM OFF,THERE'INS YOUR BATTLE
BE THE HEIGHT OF YOUR OWN GAZE,
TRAMPLE ALL THE LOWEST CRAVINGS
TO WHICH YOU'VE MADE YOUR SOUL A SLAVE.
NOW RISE UP TO YOUR FULL STATURE
LIKE A MARBLED STATUE SQUARE,
BE THE CAPTAIN OF YOUR OWN MAKING
IN YOU GO, INTO THE LIVING, IF YOU DARE!
