Funeral of Dawn

Poem

Bleak are the shadows that walk in the day

Run run, runaway

Oh dreaded sunlight of midday

You have tortured my flesh and halved my bones

Come near, dearest moonlight

Come away you faithless sunlight

Mighty are your nightly shadows

Tortured is your light

Broken is your beauty

Crawl, crawl, crawl away darkness of midnight

You have made love with many ghostly winds

Fathered many sins

Your heir, your kin

Your twilight is near
