Call out your Gods
you’re going to need them.
Call them loud!
Because they will need to hear
before they face triumph.
Call again to your wives.
And call out your warriors.
Bring them all.
Have a good look around
and make sure you see the colors.
The flags are waving;
the smell is everywhere.
Make sure you see before you go.
No one else is counting,
The fire burns regardless.
You know how that
Crack and fold
Fades
In shades
And you know why
It won’t bend in the wind
Like trees that don’t break
In the storm
Many storms
Any storms
And we know how the rain doesn’t dance
Or prance
Because it fancies you
And you know what
It is that haunts you
During the daytime
When you are not dreaming
And they know
(who?)
Who you are that won’t answer the call
Because
And you know why you do it that way
And not the other way that works that will always work
For someone who will play it that way
Because they don’t care how the game is played so long as winning is still an option
So if we win
Winning is for youngsters,
When it still matters
A cheap haul still counts for a lot
As the night draws nearer
And winning dearer, clearer
It becomes more vague
Doesn’t it?
Wouldn’t you say,
Or no?
