Space cowboy
Stephen Knox 1970 (Bygland)
The traveler arrives, so let it be known.
Whichever your realm, you are never alone.
There is so much more, than can be seen with your eye.
The new light will help, you see shapes in the sky.
The truth of self growth, are secrets disclosed.
More lies now than ever, still the universe knows.
If knowing inside, you were chosen for this.
Now come the hard times, that will lead you to bliss.
Removing the thoughts, that filled you with fear.
Easily done, since you’re the only one here.
No longer are you subject to karma’s swift wrath.
Taking your place, upon the middle path.
