Illuminated

I'm a student of just one master
I'm only afraid of one monster
I stand illuminated
All my visions crowd down to one bead of sweat
My whole life bears down on one hour
I stand illuminated
I know world holds many words
Pearls hang down in necklaces
Islands come around in archipelagoes
I get all my light from one light bulb
I stand illuminated
I'm devoted to a telling a detail
I'm awash in overall impressions
I stand illuminated
I only roll down the one staircase
I only have foresight the first time
I stand illuminated
I know the world holds many words
Pearls hang down in necklaces
Islands come round in archipelagoes
I get all my light from one light bulb
I stand illuminated
