Sin Eaters

What the Carolingians knew
Mr. Ledger
knew too

Whispered deep
where ancestors
dare sleep
words
woven like threads
of time
an indelible
rhyme

past down
to We
the few
the goddamn
gurus

We, watchers on the wall
We, eaters
of the enthralled
storytellers
fixed and ready to
brawl
bold
with stories
told

We, dancers
of this final ball
this most spectacular
fall

We, the immortal
twelve
nine
seven

We, who have come
from heaven
ringing the bell
one last
Time

We, the enzyme

slaying dragons
with our
silly little
rhyme

We, the natural
spore
ever casting
our whimsy
far from shore
always leaving you
yearning
for more

aching
to explore
evermore
the hinterlands
craving to make your mark
upon these...
uncharted lands

You, the brave
the bold
the rebel
with glory
yet to be told

We sin eaters see
We sin eaters know

Only through us
will the future
unfold
