alchemical raps

[Androgynus]

Night is Day and Day is Knight,
Right is Left and Wrong is Right,
Fair is Foul and Foul is Fair
And the Earth is in the Air.

Light is Dark and d'Arc is Light,
Straight is Crooked, Queer's Upright,
In the Gutter lies the Crown
And we're hanging Upside Down.

Still thy Heart and fix thy Wheel,
Nothing is forever Real,
R'wind the Reel and drown the Skies,
And forever Nothing dies.

The Fairy Queen shines bright and gay
In the merry month of May,
Blink thy eyes and click thy heels,
Bear the wound that never heals.

Hope lies hidden in your fears,
Like the Salt within your tears.
In the crossing rivers dive,
Drink their poison, and survive.

And remember when you think
You have seen and done it all,
That the highest place you reach
Is the place from which you fall.

None is One and One is None,
Two is Three, and Tree is One
One and Two and Three and Four
Equal One, n'Evermore.
