The Preffered

Within the calmness 
of my quiet moments 
I can sense the solitude 
calling out to me with urgency,
quietly taking over my being. 
It seems as if the depth 
of the oblivion force reaches 
out with a pull so powerfully
impressed into my being
with deafening calmness, 
so beautifully filled with bliss. 
This calmness of the Spirit 
magnificently engulfed my being 
and so majestically
my heart resonates with 
joyful tenderness to its call. 
Its unction pressed so subtly 
upon my consciousness 
with its signature of 
profound Peace. 
I am the preferred elect-priest,
worthy and accepted
The beloved hierophant 
triumphant one. 
Holding out the 
sceptre of righteousness. 
Walking in faith, love and victory,
for the help of the almighty 
guide and guards me.

Suffering certainly does bring a change in us. Well-thought out, and a beautiful way to rhyme.

Ah. I was starting to love the werewolf, with a ferocity and bloodlessly-un-caring attitude and then you brought out the silver bullets. Darn it!
