On this island laid a man
who knew not of a world, but only of trees and the sand
The ISLAND was HIM, and HIM the ISLAND
He would sing to the clouds
dance when the rain came down
Talk to the trees as the wind gave them sound
Swim in the ocean when the waves came around
Play with the sand and would give it a pound
Eat to his fill then would sleep on the ground
He did what he wanted no rules were allowed!
He beard no prejudice, no love, no hate
No aspirations, no accomplishments, no ambition, no haste
No weight, No height, No pride to stain
No hunger, no sadness, no happiness, no pain
No gender, no lust, nor stature or name
No religion, no knowledge, no vein
Nor race or ethnicity. He had just worn his face!
On this fated day in the horizon
A odd figure came to the island
It moved closer and closer as it reached the shore
A traveler saw the man and came forward!
