Cherubim

Away now pure soul

This world of strife and pain
Like a loose noose enclave
Untamed maned unashamed brave hailed praised 
In the depths of your disdain 

A new life with insight
With strife proofed frames
And a burnt bush cane
To fight through sinister nights
Till their darkness burst to flames

May your name be proclaimed
May your joy be the stain on the face of the shamed and wicked enslaved 
That are chained 
By bitter guilts crocheting their quilts that causes their light to wane

Away now pure soul, upward and away
