Circling : reborn

Black ravens circled the bell tower

As a dark storm gathered

Within the ramparts

And the echoing cries of angels

Bore testament to this time of crisis

Pregnant with danger and opportunity

For we light obsessed beings so often

Forget

The chance for renewal

Present in pain and darkness

Beauty showed its hateful side

As innocent doves wept

Bearing witness to

The fall of humanity

Into ignorance

While deep at the centre of a dark well

Swimming serpents sang the healing lament

Of the Goddess

Cast into forgetting

With the dawning of

The one sided hero

Who slay in half

The opposites of creation

Creating for us

In this outgoing age

A hell from deep within

The frenzied tides of which

We are all desperately seeking

To be

Reborn
