Albion Awake

Albion! Awake
tumble you cedars!
Owls begone; beaks, tear the fabric of the night
to sparks!
Moles, spit the soil, crime' beaks destroy
O ermine, maculate
Invert the starry firmament of night!
Split graves apart - quick!
and suck nourriture from death, sack cities and
upraise the slain!
Awake! Awake!
Let banners fly, like shrapnel,
Unfurl and efface the sky!

Lifeboy

There are things which fly above my head
The hours and the days
And ahoy! A boy!
Legs over fences, arms on terrains
Touching ground with the wild of this place.
I see a trace of me in him
But I've always been here
I'm up there and down here
Traveling ground here.
