where are we?

o miles and miles

from home--

far have we wandered.

how far is that fabled shore

where warriors rest,

where love and light dwell?

o miles and miles

from here--

farther still from all we know.

we know nothing

of sand or sea

'cept the stories where there is lad and lass

nerve touching nerve

until all are foam.

we were born in the green hills.

o miles and miles

from here--

far have we wandered.
