THE DESIRE OF OUR SOULS

THE DESIRE OF OUR SOULS

LIFE! 
AN EVER CHANGING EVENT, 
LIKE THE SKIES FACE,
CHANGING ITS MASKS WITH THE WIND.

LIFE!
WHO KNOWS FROM WHENCE IT CAME 
OR ITS ORIGIN,
WE ARE BUT TOKENS OF ITS GAME
PLAYED BY THE CHOICES WE MAKE
DAY AFTER DAY, UNTIL WE FADE AWAY.

LIFE! 
THE EPITOME OF CHANGE 
IT SPINS ON ITS OWN AXIS
AND CARRIES US, AS IT GOES,
UNTIL OUR SOULS ARE FLUNG 
INTO THE UNKNOWN 

LIFE!!
THE DESIRE OF OUR SOULS.

Wilford Barker.
