Myths

We have our myths, carefully polished
Over Time's washed stones of the riverbed
Our accumulated minds enormously meshed
As a haystack of shared consciousness.
Our gods have uneasily existed all these days
With spirits who have to be driven out
From darkly lonely houses and fearful men.
On the hillock pallid ghosts come haunting
In moonlit houses amid rising blood-chants
You know our god is fear ,not rain's beauty
Or lonely jungles with the fall of cascades.
