"You know what ah’ve seen?
Wit dese eyes of mine?"
"Tell me what you’ve seen."
"Ah’ve seen the River of Tears
flowing past my feet
like a long, slow song.
Dat’s what ah’ve seen.
"You know what ah’ve seen?
Wit dese eyes of mine?"
"Tell me what you’ve seen."
"Ah’ve seen the Rain of Blood
pour down from the Heavens
like a curtain of red.
Dat’s what ah’ve seen.
"You know what ah’ve seen?
Wit dese eyes of mine?"
"Tell me what you’ve seen."
"Ah’ve seen the Cry of Pain
drip from a thousand lips
like dark honey.
Dat’s what ah’ve seen.
"You know what ah’ve seen?
Wit dese eyes of mine?"
"Tell me what you’ve seen."
". . . .
Ah’ve seen a blanket of Pure Snow
fall on the earth like
a great, white Forever.
Dat’s what ah’ve seen."
"Then you’ve seen
all there is
to see."
And they Kissed.
