The Experiment

With your usual casual flair
You have shocked me
with the news of an experiment
to be conducted with dare
On our separate quests
for pastures new, partners few
You have rocked me
O' prince of horizon of the east
Have your feast for now, but buyer beware
Do you know what is amiss out there?
I have read, the Book of The Dead
that tells me of a curse most dread
that befalls on those
with weakness of heart and head
and may the counterfeit freedom
be your guide to despair and forfeit
your place in Orion I swear
You have mocked me
