The sky is dappled
Dark demonic shapes
Take possession
The air is light sepia silver
Toned
Golden shores pounding
In their flesh and bone.
Father's arm guides
First born son
Through death disease and darkness
To the living dawn
Step by step
On sleepers slope
Tracking a nascent morn
Of glorious hope.
