One that stands alone, and discovered, at a single point by nothing, shall at once fall
Unless so hidden that no force to come can find its place of undiscovered purity
Except the one be supported by change above or below … and then steadied by both
Infinity’s knowledge has neither measure nor rhyme of the solitude to which it belongs
The design of perfection knows well the end, for the beginning hath declared the All
And necessity must divide and release the eternal count, so that age, engender age
The new foments to continuance, the old positions and allows another to come
Unsure the relationship, is it to cross or is it to side, and yet the two … are still the one
Covenant of two shall need like support, inserted deep and held secretly in place
For deep above calls to deep below, and the communiqué though swift and fleeting
Though tangled and tiring has issued water above and brought forth water below
Division finds the union … light has subdued the darkness and one has discovered one
Now is heard the coming declaration to practice perfection; thus motion joins foray
The next one has slithered forth and confusion has origin hidden and in triangle complete
And just as a three-legged stool will falsely portray balance beneath but never on high
The low point cause of slant is discovered and broken open to allow another to abide
The balance of the fourth provides the rules of law that controls the spin of the three
In the perfection of counting and recounting of ten, focuses will settle, and then be stayed
For another coming is the coming of another, and another is one that helps make ten
The mystery and balance, and revelation found – in one standing to stand by nothing and all
