"I shall make my way, a spiritual beggar, / bearing my load of childish dreams"

I shall make my way, a spiritual beggar,
bearing my load of childish dreams,
for, when I appear before the court of reason,
I shall lower my load, unwrap them
and watch them fade into puffs of grey smoke.

 

First appeared in: Ygdrasil.
