Bent and bend
Mark Cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
Bent and bend
Of the cosmic mind
Like stars in the dark
We rise to the light
And cast minds
In the darkness
Of knowledge and light
As we go inside
And walk out of time
As space bends
Minds and light
And we view
The outside from the inside
And fall and fade
In view azure
As the sky awakes
Us to the moon
That passes them by
In time and space
As a cosmic day
