Poetry.
Sacrifice
Tripped and stumbling, here you are
Landing at the feet of the gods
Kneel with humble terror
And face your fate with grace
Bid your last farewell to the morrow’s grace
And go with trembling peace into midnight
The night is darkest before the dawn
But midnight is the blackest yet
When the sun will not rise for you
And the next day will not grace your eyes
Clasp your hands together and whisper a prayer
To unhearing gods who hold the earth in their palms
Spare a thought for a love you never knew
Give a hopeless wish for a life you’ll never have
And crawl to the alter of fire
Where the flames that flicker are hotter than Hell
And hear the whispers in your ears
Of the lost and lonesome souls that went before you
Take a glance at the stars and the moon
And fall into the fire and be consumed
A perfect sacrifice for perfect gods.
