Listen to poem:
Twice Forsaken
black clouds threaten in rumbling roars
and thunderous waves across the hills
life unrolls the worst it has to offer
and in our innocence we wonder
what has made the gods so angry
that our illusions so easily be crushed
dreams extinguished as castles crumble
grown men falling to their knees
cursing both sun and moon above
and again we ask what has made the gods so angry
