the mistress of wit

  

not only sounds but senses we require

to build the worlds in which our hearts will fit

all meanings in the end must add to fire

 

in order that we see that those who hire

the truth in stages do not crimes commit

not only sounds but senses we require

 

to bring our vision to a place that's higher

beyond the limits where the foolish sit

all meanings in the end must add to fire

 

when what comes after means we must retire

from all our options while the times permit

not only sounds but senses we require

 

for matters that will lead all to aspire

far past the normal so that atoms split

all meanings in the end must add to to fire

 

that is the certainty life is no liar

she's the true joker the mistress of wit

not only sounds but senses we require

all meanings in the end must add to fire
