Press before reading. Salute.
(A lone voice sings.)
I am abandoning
My post today
Leaving
Outpost 4
And walking through
Another door
To a new place
To stay
Throwing away
My scrying glass
Back into
The grey rivers of
The Dimitri
No longer afraid
To step
Into the deep blue
Sea of Dreams
Brave enough
To swim past icebergs
Of prosecution
For absolution
Of all who see
Me
Going beyond
The Carpathian Mountains
Past burning vortexes and fountains
Away from lost souls
Who come at me
With lit torches and pitchforks of calamity
Away from
False gods and goddesses
Who sow paths of destruction
To find resurrection
In the bright lights
Of accession
To be eternally free
I am abandoning
My post today
Leaving
Outpost 4
And walking through
Another door
To a new place
To stay
Throwing away
My scrying glass
Back into
The grey rivers of
The Dimitri
No longer afraid
To step
Into the deep blue
Sea of Dreams
Brave enough
To swim past icebergs
Of prosecution
For absolution
Of all who see
Me
Going beyond
The Carpathian Mountains
Past burning vortexes and fountains
Away from lost souls
Who come at me
With lit torches and pitchforks of calamity
Away from
False gods and goddesses
Who sow paths of destruction
To find resurrection
In the bright lights
Of accession
To save me
