In my twenty-seventh year
I set out to confront my fears
And found the role of a lifetime
You see, two plus seven is nine
And the ninth card in the
Tarot Is that
Hermit I came to know
In London
I did deprave
As if beyond the grave
From my Hermit’s
Cave Over my shoulder to…
Source of
Life Come as prisoner of love
Hermit’s Cave
Hermit’s Cave
Source of
Life Come as prisoner of love
I rarely ever went outside
Excepting the daily stride
I made me a weekly pot
And read Bible quite a lot
There, true loneliness
I did learn
Then I got a sick from
Admiral Byrd
My catharsis was crushed in a wave
And my family
I did crave
Oh, wretched
Hermit’s Cave!
Over my shoulder to…
Source of
Life Come as prisoner of love
Hermit’s Cave

Life Come as prisoner of love
In my twentyseventh year
I set out to confront my fears
And found the role of a lifetime
You see, two plus seven is nine
And the ninth card in the

Hermit I came to know
In London
I did deprave
As if beyond the grave
From my Hermit' s
