lyrics

Poppies In A Wine Flask

Three poppies,
One red, two white,
Emerge from a blue
Wine flask.

An unknown artist applies
Paint to canvas.

Galileo
Waking from a dream
Steps onto his balcony at Arcetri.

He can feel the sun revolving around the earth.

He dreamt the Ottomans had laid siege to Candia.

A ship sinks in the Mediterranean Sea
Its cargo lost forever
Investors lose money.

The master forger
Creates an anonymous work
Sold at auction in Rome.

Wind blows through
Bare branches of an olive tree.

Nothing can be known
Of a God which is
unknown.
