4. Culmination
5. In Dusk Apparition
1. Eltanin Shadowcast
the planets are watchful gods
landscape lays dim in the crescent moonlight
luna's imperial gaze on a sleeping world
the sky-bound creatures awaken
they are portals linking age to age
giving refuge to the wanderers
thrones for the sun and moon
their realm of the night
stars of the dragons head
tracing a noiseless circle hunting
but i embrace the night
as a part of myself
my spirit lives in these shadows
wandering and breathing deep the aether
free in stellar fields of nothingness
oh night thou was my guide
before the stars fled the flood fo dawn endless skies
endless skies and eternal darkness
take it away and i shall have never been
2. Celestial
Across the furrowed fields
atop the distant black ridge
wrapped in profound darkness
hanging about like a harbinger
a trailing smudge of light
stars with trails of fire and dews of blood
disasters in the sun
dark of night rides the blackthorn winds
they carry a pallid blue light
across the northern sky
wrapped in profound darkness
and the light of its passage is night and the face of the world
in silent passage across the black vault
its tail a sail for the solar wind
across the ether to the lord of worlds
wrapped in profound darkness
3. Major Tom (Coming Home)
4. Culmination
5. In Dusk Apparition
overhead the aurora twists serpentine
the assembled stellar hosts gleam
all like scattered fires from afar
burn holes in the darkest night
rising through still bare trees
the planet red as fire
traces and art near the lions tail
further towards opposition
culmination at deepest darkness
opposition of the god
opposition of the god of war
in the night of his reign
culmination -deepest darkness
standing high -a burning ember
culmination at deepest darkness
opposition of the god
