_Let gentle be the hands of fate.

As they weave, the cut bound skeins

That our lives relate

Steady, steady the hands

Mechanical wind

Heartbeats in melody

Subtle found within

The ticks of time our lives

continue, thrashing or serene

to the tock of times

of what we live

of what we live

of our lives

and how we live them.

And these hands of fate,

Who conjorous draw

Our existence from

Muscled choice of those who were woven before

And the choice is the muscle

Behind the hands of time

Our lives, lived.

From the choices

we chose for

Ourselves.

So gently let us guide the hands of fate

As we wend our winding way

To the dancing tock-tick of Time_ .
