Before they send their saintly seeds afloat…
Spiritual soldiers in silence softly set sail,
Through fields of dreams with a tenuous...

The violent 'V'
Disguised in a black rain coat
Dancing the meadow

Gone undetected
A moment of destruction
Silently Creeping

Ravishment rising
Displacing time, hope, lives, dreams
