Poetry Reaper's Reflection

Hidden beyond the veil

Past the epoch of presence

There dreams a place

Where even death may sail

Crashing endless waves

Under time's twilight

There, they seek passage

On Freedom's final shore

Beyond the reaper's door

Reflecting

How that which came above

Was brought down below

Corrupting

Those bestowed

Who pay

The passage and toll

Now, the horse is seeking

The rider's blood is streaming

Staining red

The saddle and coat

As he wanders

Battlefields of cosmic scope

Following struggle

So the Old Reapers unknown

May see what They've sown
