Ritual

by Brian Francis



Runes and rhymes and fires smoke
sands drawn out, a careful rite
enticing ancient powers to come
Magic cast on the darkest night

circles chant and wander around
words as old as the sound of birds
they cast almost a warbling sound
round upon round of ancient words

Flames of blue and red and white
dance in the eyes a billowing flash
An energy builds with the final rite
Falling silent prostrate on the ground

I tried that when my phone crashed; since than, all my texts have morphed into runes. I guess human nature has lost touch with its mother.
