The Queen of Orkney
July 25, 2022
The roots of an embankment will swallow you whole as you trudge through the marsh
Holding you tight as you become their first born
Blessed by pagans an axe drives a wedge
Between a throne and your way out
A gentle push inwards
Towards your own rushing river of blood
A body found on bend of the shore
Baptized in sin
Born again from war, Charon waits on the horizon
Oh succumb my heart
Go flow beneath the edge of water’s grove
Although the courage of a man holds no weight
And the honor of a man is as deep as the well he casts his wishes into
