Satan, Forsaken [an eight part poem]
The Somber Sun I
What has thou seen O Sun,
Of love or of hate
I will not be surprised,
If thou close thy eyes
And find it, within thy sky filled heart
To wipe all forms of memory—
And hide unto the dark.

Prophecies of the Wind II
The winds, the winds, the winds
What tiding do you bellow in?
Bring forth your tears sigh again
So all earthlings will understand
The prophecies are in the winds:
The earth shall tremble, quake,
And fate will ultimately win!...
#1380
Oblivious Night III
I slept a short sleep: and woke unto the night
To far to see, my hand in front of me
Beneath the Moon's ghostly hallow light
Here the living world lost its voice
Lo! The dim, grim night struggles in
Trying to find its way, behind the grave,
Like a fish swimming into the deep—
I then went back into my sleep.
#1381
Summer's Heat IV
The Summer's heat
The air intensifies with life
Then seals the icy winds
You can hear the lifeless spirits
Amongst the fields of Summer's heat
Murmur, quietly...
Stirred with secrets!
#1382
Satan, Forsaken V
"All earth is now my throne—!
For I have lost my heaven—
And now I stand-alone.
Man's obedience
Has supported me
Unjudged I stand before he:
Yet God forsakes me
Forgotten in the wistful
Echoes of eternity..."
#1383
The Prophet VI
The prophet rides no more
Across the heavens and the stars
'Tis God's emptiness
He cast a spell upon us:
With our incredulous years!
#1384
The Poet VII
The poet marvels at his life
As if he found a magic brook!
And then by suicide
He takes his life,
Like lost echoes in the woods.
#1385
Power VIII
Power: Oppression
Limitless
Tyranny
Influence
Obedience—!
A tempest
Hard to keep
Under ones
Enormous feet.
