Fenris Unbound
It all begins with an innocent act.
Original sin of the kingdom:
Eat.
Read red nature,
Tooth and claw.
Life flows across our lips, cruel wisdom.
And we know, dread-full
This too shall pass.
Hope glimmers at the edge of his hearing
And he comes to us in dreams,
Whispering…
(All striving away from this ignoble truth)
“It will end.”
Deny! Deny (if you must),
Rage, perhaps.
This light will die.
Look away.
Eclipsed, the eye’s bright Aversion
The truth shall –
A sleight of mind: I want.
(This shop holds the Future! Act now!
Get yours before you get
Left out
Left behind
Left over
Passed over
Passed away. )
I need.
“Choose wisely,” he whispers,
a sleight of paw to match the mind,
weakening the unbreakable
Deceit
“Dulce et decorum est pro patria…”
Mangia. Mangia bene.
Chews well?

I chews life! I chews the sun who lives in all living things.
Take. Eat. This is the sun who is in all life that is freely given for you. Eat this and remember (the source).
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing it.
