(i)
"Escapeescapeescape!"
we stood with mouths agape
no prisoner had fled
but one amid his bed
went wandering so free
in mental liberty
his soul had left behind
body & humankind
(ii)
nocturnal moksha seemed
a dream we scarce had dreamed
yet every dreamer goes
beyond sorrow I s'pose
yet fleetingly 'tis true
till comes prison anew
when dawnlight's tassels drape
there ends the great escape
