Like A Statue In Dawning

So sweet for me this reddened October, the slush and flush of a foreign sky

'Tis me for this much I would avail no remorse, for without or much width I'd travel again

To the vile dust from whence it sprang this mortal uncoiling, this busted adamant or latent humanity

And far within did I once row for the shores of the morrow they called for me in swathes of much chagrin!

For yes, I have seen the golden signs of mired conspired forgoing notwithstanding on tales of much barging

But still new I did see the sighs of the old on the myriad aplenty these vast unknown symmetry

For without but an inkling did I feel humanity it lingers on me, on grounds of not hoping but much distressing

In too deep was I deemed you once said to me? But not much I did care for that mazed disenchantment!

Alas, let it be known that I may never want to set foot on that abomination of doldrums again, forsooth!

For none they did know I'd suffered in business or dissidence for an enemy much fooled, oh poor twisted me!

And so yet again I did see in my sleep like before those buffoons they'd call forth for all heavens to break not for me still!

But this time it is them who are lost and keep on losing, thus goodbyes and good riddance are very much in order at present, and then some!

And thus the everlasting friendship based on indignity for grace it did follow me still to this hill of no eyes

Far within all my troubles they did but so brew for one last time for a fragrance unmatched, a-billowing so tall or so to speak

But for what this purpose might it be I did say no more egos for once I split three, to one in despair, another in disdain, and one more in denial, but neither in destruction; God thankfully so!

For this is the end for all my ungodliness to withstand the end for another dark autumn, at last I am free to now touch the sky for all of my worthiness, so still and so poised like a statue in dawning!
