As we

we wait staring beyond

marching

borderland the heir of life

feign

weakness then nerves brace

successor

time and wake

for we hath shed

shed of excess

rid the vice

of guilt and fear

gain prevail a moor of shadows

called is absolution

withstand the final

ends of the heartstroke

earthen ways

lavishly reaped

summit enshrined

requiscat but in life

lore profanity

avengeful laughter
