CHAPTER V -- The Last Wanderer

Muddy waters couldn’t keep me from getting to you, babe
Wiped the muck from my face and hopped from frame to frame
While you sat on your pinnacle,
It was so unbelievable,
Drowned bodies were floating on top the crest of a wave.
While staring at the buoyant I gave a little thanks
Even though we all fell from grace
So beautiful—their devoted search for Providence
Stared up at you, then back at them
Tapped my feet and dove right in
The murky waters of my past were easier to swim. EH
We made it to the gate, and a bearded man screamed:
“Too little. Too late.”
I kicked the dirt and turned back around
“Alright,” I said, “I’ll give it another go.”
Memorized my lines for this perpetual show
So confident I’d get it right this time.
But no.. When that curtain closes, I’ll see you again
On top your monolith staring down, with a grin
With that all seeing eye you’ll never miss a beat.
