DRAFT POEM

From behind the Mounts, hidden
To the alien territory, my summon
Of Obi and Uduak, the ecstasy
And the glories of the moment

Love
The double horned Minotaur

THE INITIATION

Manacled hands

Legs… bare

Clothes... tatters

Death-pale eyelids rose halfway

Between supplication and surrender

Ending on the apparition  

That was his host

Feature… gloomy mask

Beneath doom lurked

The hands clutched Rylotts Band

The lost eyes stared again

And retreated into its weary

Sockets before the first act struck home

Departing with pellets of flesh

He slumped

And was interred before he touched the earth
