Fearful Symmetry
Alex Arrowsmith
You sailed to the hidden unheard
And when you returned I saw
A girl who glowed
Encrypted in the code
Within your sack a broken Swiss watch
Broken slivers of a white picket fence
The Holy Grail's moss
A spool of minty floss
You sailed out of humdrum days
And when you came back at blue dawn
Your eyes turned clear
Invisible to years
Your message came in many fierce nods
Though I picked up on every mad shake
A specter of a soul
The spectrum of control
Say you cast away your fearful symmetry
You said, "The golden age begins right here
Just if you make them all disappear
The golden age begins right now
If you call on her to show you how"
You sailed to the end of time
And though it was all in your head
It's forever been
Just below the skin
You came back with a handful of yarn
Silver, stretching past the matter at hand
The matter in your head
The bugs inside your bed
Say you cast away your fearful symmetry
