The Runed Goat (Part 1)
Come take my hand lets get away from this place
into another space let's call sector xyz
we join arms, close eyes and say:
Here we stand the world is riven
move the ley line transfiguration
we seek the place of rejuvenation
hear us warder of the gates and seas
take us swiftly to the state that we seek
we are not afraid of death nor life bleak!
and with a great gust and a howl
blacked out for a while
lightning patterns crackle and burst
ultraviolet lines rehearsed
we walk through the forest of firs
hear a ravens cry from the nearby ravine
you reach for a bright arrow
I call to the wind
give us vision
all creatures nearby
translucent filters don the eye
see through the earth and sky
all is revealed though limited frame
hovering overhead like an alien vessel
though invisible a projection
noticed smoke on the wind
a man sits next to his campfire
the crackle and a log falls
smoke listless drifting
you cast a spell we step into
feel our energy wane
a little cold chilled
we step out from behind the scene
good day sir you might say
may we stop for a story
and a bit of wine
we have only company tonight
he chuckles and offers a seat
he assumes we don't intrude
offers what we have asked
gains a couple friends in return
then again
a goat with rune stones flashing
walks down through the reeds
from the hilltop nearby
the thunderclaps
it staggers over
transforms into a hideous ogre
but I'm too lazy to write more
if your imagination stirred
give more likes nerd
maybe part two will be less boring.
