c'est l'ironie
of daydreams and long lines
of promises and impatience
of distant faces and shuffling feet
of saints, and delicate patience
of sinking ships and striking gold
obscure maps and a scryptic star
of secrets and survival
of age and lost memories
of luck and the scent of candles
restless eyes and sleepless nights
of gloss winged ravens and writing desks
unwritten pages awash in the rain
of dreams
and saviors
