A RAKER OF DUST
A RATTLER OF BONES

A unknown author once wrote, once
said that our world is a dying world
of fragmentation and of despair

Thus, making the poet, the writer the
raker of dust, the rattler of bones

&

Like the shaman

The very last of their kind

All lost
Gone

The poets, the dreamers
all dead & buried

Before the the end of
The 21st century

With no magick

No purpose

No words

All myth
All lore

Detached & destroyed
In the chaos

That is life

That they call progress

The prophets
Have left the building
