# 94 and #95



#94
Skies above—cloud white ‘nd dark
All visions seen to all:
Duck of darkness, drag’n white
Ev’l and good begin the fight.

#95
The fight in ern’st begins anew.
Is seen within the abbey.
An auburn flame where once was gentle 
Breeze, now walls of tabby.

#87 and #88



#87
Now have our knowledge dri’en past reason
Beyond our nat’ral ken?
Can we--must we rise above
Or navigate the din?

#88
Sol ‘tis risen. Dark has past.
Now  ‘tis day anew.
‘lthough the spectre stay in shade
And tarries for the few.

#53 and #54



            #53
The dark’ning light is deeper still,
As justice turns away.
We recognize the face we see,
As ‘t rises in the fray.

            #54
The ‘trocity ‘ccomplished: Brazen, stern.
They never told us why.
The obelisk is standing not,
And weeping takes the sky.
