Old War
Dark night comes
With strange mists;
Dark thoughts sum
A taut gist.
Change is war
On these shores;
Fear brings thaw
Yet some more.
Sides we take
Old war curls;
Break or make
Stokes now hurl.
Feel the bad
Fling harsh blows;
Pain marks sad
Death that grows.
No one here
Will live well;
Glitch storms near
Time will tell.
Seek to see
Plague that kills;
Dare to be
One with will.
Seek to live
Dawn's bright ways;
Light can give
Lease of day.
Hope knows best
Faith in cheer;
Seize fond quest
Light draws near.
