Cry of the Valkyries

Vallaha as Valkyries scream from
the depths of hell.
Charging out
into the vacuum 
of an unoccupied mind
deafening all who listen
to their monstrous cry
from the bleak wilderness 
called Vallaha.

Scream out to Odin
the scourger, charmer, enchanter.
Bewitched sinner sirens,
resonant, ensouling the strings
of unattended souls.
Lyrics whispered into
the trance of an ephemeral ballet
yet, appearing
epic in length and nature.
