the sound of our ancestors
dry sibilation of time and loss
and golden temptation

opened books in closed
groves
the pages don't read themselves

I want to go

come, he says softly

an old man appears and
moves in a tired dance
amid the scattered tomes

gently the truth calls

Descent of the Awen's descant
Sublime undersounds underscore
The quiet text
The lives of three men, The life of an eagle; The lives of three eagles, The life of a yew; The lives of three yews, The length of an age. Nennius
The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to those that think they've found it. Pratchett
