Praying away the sun
Wearing no plate
Neither glistening nor glimmering
Shriving before all-knowing Dagda
Lorefather seated at Síd in Broga.
Highest casement descried
Ancient hyperbole starchasing
Charting firmaments blaze-gazed
Bending royal Boyne thereby parades
Men from lost continents
Atlantean fashion and knowledge
Heart center in our missing province
High kings crowned
Stone screaming sent up
Steel shivering with summoned fire
Shimmering in flaxen chieftain’s hand
Long simmering, long suffering.
Long-haired dale men reared
On fox milk and stonesucking
Stoop from steeds kneeling by rockeries
Alive with mockeries of wild garlic
Healing herb stocks, to pluck Michaelmas Daisies
To war to war to war
Tomorrow no thing to adore
Whore who pries eye’s diamond from today
Daycent portion of muscle-contorting mushrooms,
Foreshortening flesh, cleaving distance
Dissolving density, messing with measure and propensity
Delinearizing agent ameliorating
Mycoidal alchemy highlighting destiny’s imminence
Enabling men to whip quickly, ripping from rigid armatures
Becoming creatures of pure havoc and harm, ten or one armed
Flexile chimerism born of root and charm, word and leaf.
Throat-clappered bells
World’s truss replays tenfold
Sky backpeeling to announce victories fated
Naming today’s ever-changing favours.
