Deep Archer

I thought the last half of this song to evoke a certain quality of the deep archer thing coming from a seemingly completely different place:
....
Prometheus the problem child still juggling with his brains
Gives his limping leopard's visions to the miser in his veins
Saying Gods are indigestions I come for gain
But I am the archer the lover of laughter and
mine is the arrowed flight
I am the archer, and my eyes yearn after the unsullied sight
Born of the dark waters of the daughters of night
Dancing without movement after the clear light
Oh Perithian fate be kind in the rumbling and trundling rickshaw of time
Hooked by the heart to the king fisher's line
I will set my one eye for the shores of the blind
Music of The Incredible String Band - The Mad Hatter's Song Lyrics | Written by Robin Williams
