In the morning mist

by the waning moon

through the woods she set on foot

With a sacred blade cut the berries down

Dug up the dreaded mandrake root

Tread my path to summer's end

This bequest I leave you, she says

You will see what could be evergreen

Turn to copper and fade to gray

By the standing stones

Atropine eyes smiled at me

Sitting in a sluggish vertigo

Sands of time form another dream

No love without sacrifice

No life springs without decay

The final kiss is a wormy one

to rest we'll lay

This bequest I leave you, she says

Turn to copper and fade to gray
