Verses From Which to Whirl

Remember that spell we cast dear soul
By the fire when secretly we strolled
As silhouettes of the most tempting
Shape swirled
Twisting the bars of our former cage

Remember that power we owned dear soul
By the moonlight when eagerly we howled
As figures of the most glorious form revolved
Piercing through the walls of our cosmic jail

The smoke that we rashly inhale
Is the essence of our dismantled bones
And we breathe this entrancing smell
Steaming from our past misfortune
Dissembled, we rejoice and dance
As the heavens can’t carry the weight
Of our withstanding TEMPLE!

Remember that condor we showed dear soul
By the moonlight when eagerly we howled
As spirits from the most corrupted myths
Withdrew the veil of our mortal dreams

And up that hill stands the last of our words
Among verses from which to whirl

Remember that odd deal we closed dear soul
By the fire when secretly we scowled
As verses of the most sizzling nature
Broke the letters of our former censure

And up that hill stands the last of our words
Amongst verses from which to whirl!

By a course rare and lonely
Strewn with altered stains only
Where an opponent named LIGHT
With vehemence speaks and fights
I have wandered there and swirled
Amongst verses from which to whirl…
