Jacob's Ladder - Rush

The clouds prepare for battle

In the dark and brooding silence.

Bruised and sullen stormclouds

Have the light of day obscured.

Looming low and ominous

In twilight premature

Thunderheads are rumbling

In a distant overture…

All at once, the clouds are parted.

Light streams down in bright unbroken beams…

Follow men’s eyes as they look to the skies.

The shifting shafts of shining weave the fabric of their dreams…
