Spires

On the day four beasts fell…
Their tails whipping the sky in smoke
Consumed by their own fire
Such commerce
 Brought down an ancient spire
 
Little did the beasts care
 A mighty success 5 years prior
When just one was saved
 From confusion and mire
 
For as the cock crowed
 In a mourning flame
If they would’ve recognized a sun
They would’ve known when thearthwon
