Barricade the Sky - Night Owls Lament Iv

Barricade the hills against the sun. It is coming, to break down the doors of night with a battary ram of fire and light. It will break through the hills and towering trees golden arrows ripping through the leaves sending the panicked birds into the air. It has come to kill the moon to put an end to dreaming to dry the dust and banish the jewels scattered on the blades of grass. Rise early. Go the fields and try to barricade the sky. Try to barricade the sky.
