The Calm of Calamity - Kaddisfly

In the eye of the sky the night bent down and sighed

And said with a smile, to the wind as it cried:

€œyour tears form the oceans and as with the tides

Time forms the tears that you cast from your eyes

Your salt forms the land and the earth becomes mortar

Which dictates your path with direction and order

As rivers lay softly asleep in their beds

You cry with great plumage from violet to red

And as you to your sons and as you to your daughters

I’ll keep gentle watch over earth and its waters

And as much as you control the ebb and the flow

And as sure as the currents carve pathways below

And as swift as the tides rotate from high to low

That’s as swift as you came and as quickly you’ll goâ€
