Infinity

Was it love or lust

The primeval thrust

These urges to blame

For into this world I came

‘Twas no fault of my own

This sperm and egg

Be it Kings or thieves

A child is conceived

This universe was my home

But I’ve done my penance

Served my earth-bound time

Released from this carcass

This ball and chain

When I ride on the beast

Of Infinity once again
