Beyond the shadows Into the arms of victory, Paradise, god himself. Remember it is always The positive, a reward, A due consideration For all that we've gone through; How can the universe Be so ungrateful. There is an intelligent order That always watches over us, Else our existence will be absurd, And we can't live with that, Can we?
Beyond the shadows Into the arms of love, The sybaritic moment, The consummation, And a Hegelian extension Into the limitless future. Remember the Tantric tradition, The Christian temptation. We have to find a true denouement That both excites and satisfies; If we've made all the effort, Are not frightened or fickle Then, there has to be, A fitting conclusion to our existence.
