Path of Dust - Negation
¬
The fool is lashed
The wise is shackled
The chains, seer's sight
(Now, does it matter)
White towers set aflame
(Bells toll, walls fall)
We ask
What colour is their fire
(Not soon enough they learn)
A man
Fell
A sleep
Illuminated took
His veins for bonds
The cord was cut
With barbed rust
Peaceful and calm
The child
Awakes
(Not fit to be a father
The Sea, it's selfish
Bears only Storms)
Do question everything
Do never question nothing
Know to not be
In being not, you are
Question yourself
Until
The sky, a curtain
The stars, they fall
The face, a mask
Around the owl
A night
Around the light
The dark
(Around the sailor
Storm)
All puppets dance
Around the pond
We do remember you
Do you remember us
Dream well
Good night
Dust

Reference
Found in the copy of "Negation"
preserved at the Avlis Tower University
Numerous references throughout this text may or may not
pertain to the events of the second decade of XX c. AOD
when Wilsash's Great Dream was brought to near frution.
At this point Dust participated in a riddle game, a challenge
involving Wilsash himself, where most other participants were
members or associates of The Luminous Order of the Mind.
In this game the participants took many roles, as detailed
in the public document archive copy referenced below.
"Negation" may or may not refer to these roles
or to those who played these roles at the time.
