DECADENCE
I sit alone and watch the stars die out
Before the creeping dawn comes up the sky,
Like some old priest whose faith has turned to doubt When gods no longer heed his wailing cry.
The dark trees etch themselves against the dawn, Like memories of old that bring regret,
Or little formless fears the night has drawn Against the sky in sharp-lined silhouette.
The moon is fading now, the skies grow grayThe turning tide of life is at its ebb, And mists along the valley float away Like silvery dew upon a spider's web.
This world is dying now; there is no more
A dawn will come more hopeless than the night, Our rhymes are run, our hopes no longer soar,
We bow beneath a barren beauty's blight.
The ashes of our altar fires are cold,
And prophets wail the times they cannot mendFacing the future with hearts grown old We only know . . . a world can end.
