Ooh! Look what I found
'Neath the dust of the ground:
I believe it's the sound
Of Time grinding down….
If it's not then it's worse
And I hope that your purse
Can handle the hire
Of a celestial hearse!
(As)
Phoebus-Apollo, he rides,
Cloak a-flame, with blazing eyes,
Racing RA 'cross the skies, their
Tandem chariots full laden
With sparks pyrotechnic.
(So)
Now, to ignite the horizon they
Release the snake-dancing
Flame to writhe on the pyre
Of all the pure and unholy
Who'd attracted the ire
Of the eye of the sire
Of all gods and all men
Of water, earth, air and fire.
(Yea)
All dross beneath heaven,
Judged and found wanting,
Now piled, stacked and waiting:
For true transformation>
For ion exchanges>
For some explanation>
For a fission of sages.>>>>>
Too learnèd by half and
Soon to be humbled, the mortal
Mettle cast to be tested,
Twice blessed by the fiery
Promethean gift, clad in
Cloth-of-gold irony.
(But)
This just conflagration
Compromising Night's station
Will later be balanced
By the extended entrance
Of all that is dark, still and
Meet for the cooling of
The post-purification.
Night's ice offers soothing.
A frigid libation 'pon the
Still glowing embers of the
Charred Terran sacrifice.
(And)
Note, this near-total destruction
Was not due to friction 'twixt
Ideologic constructions.
But instead did result from
Deities dear, dabbling at dice.
