Can I build a castle

Below those of years ago?

Maybe unroot some answers

To questions nerver asked.

 

In the solitude of erection,

I must consider what's above.

For if a thought has no reason,

Then it seems it is but for naught.

 

Never-the-less, on I go.

The outcome will tell all.

For I, but a mercenary,

Must collect my wages due.
