"Fore Runner" On the day of our Lord And the day of the Devil, When times doors are clothed, Then comes the keeper of the level. The veil will only be broke If the keeper of the level sees The light of night and both folk; The wayward sister and the wandering brother. On the between numbers day, The bespoken pair will join And the wayward meets the wandering to play The game beyond all the ruin. If success should come, then, On the Lord's and Devil's Day. The veil will be able to mend When the sun is there to lend The rays to show the way. Megan Delia Ratcliff 21 August 1999 |
