A Abóbada da Vida

É a abóbada
Lá no alto da cabeça
De onde a alma brilha pendulada
Como um cristal num pingente
É a mente
É a mente atônita
Descendo e subindo a escada
Da coluna vertebral da gente
Tentando alcançar a abóbada
Da vida
É a vida abobalhada
Ilhada dentro do corpo
Notre Dame imaculada
Órgãos por todos os lados
Tocando música
E os olhos da vida em êxtase
Vendo a alma brilhar pendulada
Presa no alto da abóbada
Da vida
