Stasis in sunlight.
Then the blue expanse
of sky and horizon intrude.
Arthur's archetype
has drawn me here
to this high place - the Head
and its fissured precipices,
crumbling walls
and secrets I cannot quite catch:
The Grail.
Knight Seekers inciting
fanaticism -
hidden unfathomable truths,
mythic ghosts.
Now, something more profound
hauls me back through centuries.
Changing shape,
I am a different being -
a black
Cornish Chough, perched
in Gallos' hollow centre.
And now I
call to the Once and Future King:
a Totem's cry
carried on the Dragon's breath.
And I
become the Horn
whose reverberation
reawakens Him
to Albion's dire need:
a new Armageddon is upon us...
Love the photo and the words traveling through to mystical places less accessible otherwise. Temporary escape from the day..
ReplyDeleteWonderful writing as always..
Thanks
Yes, such a beautiful place...and how I wish I could just melt into those ancient legends...;)
DeleteMany thanks.:))
__ The devastation... our local hurricanes and to the more... the worldwide earthquakes; within it all, we see the heros, and that when we give as little as it may be, we help they that face the new Armageddon. _m
ReplyDeleteNibiru
aligns within we all
until we give
rebels with help
in silent faith they serve
tomorrow's breath
Yes, so disquieting...all these terrible happenings worldwide...makes you wonder what it all means...what it is leading up to. :/
