The gauge by which I measure myself
Measures by gaugeing a point
Until it encounters what I know
With what I don't take into account
Measuring from the point of luck
While tracing the race
Where the courage in death
Stems from the fear of life
Poison, dagger, exit
Door open to the end
Compromised madness
With what I know of me
It is at this point-moment
That in the limited excess
I'm transformed into what I invent
And I finally appear
