[Neuromancer]

VII

Time and place do not change
Nor power, thirst nor air
In a transitory dream you choose
Illusions of the light
Upon a desert bare and bane
Where bones of indecision lay
Scattered in the night

At each turning find your face
Amidst the myriad spinning guile
There is no higher dream
Nothing to restore
Save a single silent soul
Adrift on a sea of transit
Lost to that solid shore

There is a final desert
In a distant final land
With faith not hope go forward
Stride bravely in the sand...

[Neuromancer]

IN THE NIGHT SKY

If you shine on me
Midst the darkness
Then love shall be
My light

This world may be a reflection
Cast in a distant eye

But in the airy moonlight
Where men and Gods draw nigh

You are my faithful compass
We are just I and I...
