Children of the Dying Light

Now comes the next course
The world that holds all flesh
All carcass in waiting
All temples devoured in dust

A storm of light breathes unto the earth
Solar tongue kissed the dirt
Shadow hammer falls
The genesis chaos firmament

The one hand that reached for death
Now reaches for eternal life
A shifting of the wind
Now gathered in new form

Banded together at the girdle
Their flaws thrive in infertile soil
Blind to lands beyond fate
Brilliant amidst gloom and rapture

From pyres of incalculable loss
The God seeds were sewn
Wardens of unmerciful sky
Bound by blood and vow

Inviolate
Sacrosanct
Summoned by the cosmic pulse

Myriad forms
Meat for the fire
The cooling coals of the Seven
