I no longer sizzle across the city at night

I no longer sizzle across the city at night

I no longer sizzle across the city at night
a burning arrow whooshing for the target

I can see the dry and strident light blaze
from the window of your spiritless house

Sometimes I long to come in from chaos
that surrounds me here in natural light

But I gather my spirits and hold them close
and count my verdant rain-wet riches

I move forward slower towards the goal
My aim approaching the truth.
