The hooded figure waits




A hooded black robe to the ground

Standing looking without a sound 

Whose turn is it in their final fall 

Waiting potently for their last call



Do you see the signs in the sky written

Or a scripture that was at home driven

I walk towards the setting sun

And can’t fail to see a world undone



Do I slip wanting truth known

Or does it matter I hear you groan

Wake up the world before it’s late

Remember the hooded figure waits.
