A secret one named Yato Norogato Speaks



In the eternal battle between the Light and Dark


To defeat the metaphorical slugs that surround you and wait so quietly and patiently


In black uneven lines  

Who pine


The slow but sure followers of a second eternal Father called Darkness  


Who hides behind the worlds worst headlines 


Trying stealthily to invade your Circle of Happiness


You must use whatever your Allegiance as an unspoken Magical Charm


To protect your Angelic Stillness


By wielding your Devotion as your Salt Circle


In an unbreakable Sword of Conjured Silver


To hold back the Dark Hordes


Imbued with your Virtues as your Mighty Defender


To protect your Family  

Friends

Hopes and Dreams


For at the Core  

Stripped bare


That's all  

Whatever your calling


That's been already planted as a Trinity of Divine Seeds


Within us all  

That we'll ever need


In which we can trust  

Before we turn to dust


And return to the Universes never-ending cathedrals


Of ever-expanding atoms


As we are once again forced to kneel in submissive acquiescence


When Death visits and we are then crushed
