By the commerce and the cry
Of a thousand advertisers
Urging everyone to buy?
Do the cards and coloured candles

In realms unknown, where souls reside,
New lessons await, and wisdom...

RELIGIOUS FALLACIESIn secret temples, hidden from the sun
A false faith gathers, deceit is done
Gullible hearts, enslaved by design
Treasures drained, with prophetic lies divine

Ursula's passions remain.
In verdant gardens,
your green fingers play,
Cultivating life,
with tender care,
Amongst the...
