Winged Warrior Poet Lento

Listen to poem:

Eternal Existence Evaporating

Existence evaporating in loves empty extinguishing,
Resistance resonating amidst forthcoming futile exile;
Distance desecrating dreams dormant diminishing,
Subsistence sacrificial amongst hominids hostile.

***   ***   ***   ***   ***

Disappearing divinity divergent of idols imaging,
Fearing forever fading loves upon vacant voids;
Appearing apparitions abandoned forever finishing,
Domineering demons dispatching destructive droids.




...this lento can also be read backward...
