My Old Friend - Dave Kerzner

Hello, my old friend

From the other side of the end

You’ve come to visit me again

Poetic license to pretend

Hello, to the shape unknown

Waiting dauntless on my own

Bare and fragile flesh and bone

I am eager to be shown

Give me reason, give me art

Unearthly wisdom you impart

Crossing over, shaking hands

With someone who understands

Hello, my old friend

From the other side of the end

We both took that drive

To an unexpected curve

With hollow people

Who’ve got a lot of nerve

Restrained what we deserve

In a cloud you observe

Give me reason, give me art

Unearthly wisdom you impart

Crossing over, shaking hands

With someone who understands

Give me courage, give me grace

Spin the dogma that I face

I am tuning to the signs

Etching truth in cosmic lines

So long, my old friend

One day we shall meet again
