Black MoonA Poem by Autumn Dawn RidgeDon't forget Friday's black moon! Happy October!Black moon, so soon you'll be a'rising knelt before your sooty alter prayed, one wolf--- To keep the other's at bay One wolf to keep the other's away You show your dark face no one could replace The elder of the second new to me, one wolf--- to keep the other's depraved one wolf to keep me enslaved Blood, harvest, honey, new and blue But no light shines under the black moon I see you in my dreams, as black as soot Your deep sapphire eyes, and inky foot One shaggy black wolf to keep the other's away One hungry-sooty wolf to keep them all at bay This is what I pray--- Keep the pack from me away Keep me, heal me, here I'll stay One black moon rising before The alter, I knelt, and quietly prayed One black moon wolf to keep them at Bay Incantations, recitations Black moon magic did invoke A diamond collar for your yoke Silver tipped ears, and fangs of white Yours did make a fearsome sight One black moon wolf did conjure fright! Black wolf, now my bidding you will do Your Queen commands your obedience After all, it was I who utterly wrought you Now go forth and protect me hence You have the power of the unseen The essence of a black moon's dream Go forth, my wolf, and protect my honor And all that would, my power, desecrate For within the moon's rising of an hour Smite all who'd rob my maiden's shape Along your blood thirsty, battleground tour Flush out thine enemies, and annihilate Return to me unharmed, my beloved My shape-shifting, fearsome knight One black moon wolf doth show his might Wrought from a black moon's dust Sadly, this love was only for one night--- Return, from whence you came, you must. © 2018 Autumn Dawn Ridge |
