Gathers – Quickening Outstretched – Finger Points
write thy words – through stone – through time
carve them – command entomb hearts – biblicist shalt later bind
thunder scream - lightening flash - creative force
form sacred pledge - none may now seek - secluded divorce
years roll forth - through storms - seeding jaded passion
heroic great men - fall in dust - as scattered atoms
engraven force – yield flesh impressed – impregnated brand
burn depths – within fertile fevered – soul enticing man
forged mounded – civilizations aspire – attest questing men
spirit still aslumber – overriding all – creative shrouded hem
through garment – divine universe mystic – force is rent
echoing back – through millennium countless – are footsteps spent
Gathers – Quickening Outstretched – Finger Points
