Crossroads




My head gazes down beside me,
Upon the sacred land,
And the star which just did guide me
Is scattered, in quicksand;

My head gazes down behind me,
Upon the pit of sin,
And what then do I find me,
But my star afloat within;

My head gazes down yet further still,
And stars beckon me down,
Many they lure crushed atop the spill
Which surely makes one drown;

I don’t know how to blame for this,
I don’t know why it’s been arranged,
I don’t know to feel shame for this,
I don’t know who’s deranged,
I don’t know what are the stable grounds,
I don’t know when they are,
I don’t know what will not fall down,
I don’t know such a star,
But I know that if such thing there be,
To have before I’m dead,
I’ve heard the heavens sing to me
That it’s somewhere up ahead.
