both near and far

if the map's wrong you will not find your goal
what shows in vision is just a mistake
you will have failed to comprehend the whole

the task requires that each takes on a rƓle
of lord or peasant worker monk or rake
if the map's wrong you will not find your goal

to make the journey first you give parole
but if you cannot reach the mountain lake
you will have failed to comprehend the whole

so many come your good sense to extol
you may no longer tell the real from fake
if the map's wrong you will not find your goal

too soon you pass the last assigned patrol
in unknown places your intent will shake
you will have failed to comprehend the whole

no word we say will serve you to console
in times when even strongest trees shall break
if the map's wrong you will not find your goal
you will have failed to comprehend the whole

(C)2007, Fragano Ledgister
