TODAY IS FOR LOVE

A ruby dart sails, it sears my palm
I feel the surge of glory and bliss.
Larks waltz with doves to kiss my brow
the mystic gate parts; all holy seals melt
so halos may rise and paths shine true.
Hark a horn blasts! Hail riders in white!
O come dear prize! Call magic to blaze
for arid, grey souls whose hopes are dross.

THE MARCH OF THE ELECT


A pink veil drifts; the fir trees bow
as pearl globes wink and blue capes trail.
Stars bead sun hair; buds flow from lips
rapt faces spark gems; hands clasp to pray
for cities of ice where acid rots men.
Lead spikes stab faith; hate lobs her boils
rocks groan in pangs; the gifted souls writhe
their mute tears gush and salve earth's woes.

THE DARK LORD STALKS

The gold mist sings; her comely gaze thrills
A host of shades crafts runes and spells.
Gales part her drapes; whines blast the hush
ash hoods fall dead; fangs glint to snarl.
Void eyes shoot rays; my soul sinks wan
a hiss rips flesh; I whirl past stars.
My body leaks slime; the dark realm looms
I hear drums pound to greet new wraiths.

THE DAY OF GRACE


O high Lord wing with oil to bless
the once lost heir who gored red eyes
of trolls and ghouls born from fire's pit
to rend his staff that flared at sea
so the fair race might fear no blood.
O haste white gift! Bring forth your crown
ablaze in rich rose to hail the peace.
Adorn his sweet head with glory and lauds
and spray holy scent upon the glad aisle.
O chaste maid glide! Come pleat your love
in his moist heart long torn by war.
