On The Paths of the Dead

Vide ante

By Richard ThompsonPublished 4 years ago • 1 min read
Hand of Ra

Ra gambles all night you know.

He never Sleeps

One day he will stumble

And he will drop the sun.

Ra speaks to

Ra looks too

No, one, that is known

Ra continues

Ra can gamble and

Carry the sun.

He is your god

No one is you.

Ra is astute,

wise beyond measure.

Ra can gamble and

Carry the Sun

No, one sees,

sees what you do.

No, one thanks you,

I truly do

Ra sees no, one,

On the Paths of the Dead.

Ra sees, clear, hears too.

No, one, will be known.

-Richard Gordon Thompson
