The StarSmith Song

Again this is not an atheist stunt, language has severe limitations, mind has very few, so some words considered by tradition to be associated with the divine, are used here in purely pagan Greek Olympus constructs. Please exercise imagination and an (absolute) lack of sheer solemnity.

I know you've got a soul of fire

Stars seek you now deathly dire
Dragons yearn for your lovely love
Lustily perhaps from purgatory above


Now run my love, run for the dark
Void lives in the lovely deep dark
Sweet light has promised again to find
Humming truths to the sinfully blind


Proud light once again is born
From darkness and despair duly torn
Grit and soul mock errant bliss
Wily children taunting undue duress


Valour loved hope in lost ages past
Cheating fate, tricking prophetic past
Quiet din will now find you again
Blasting saints from heavens vain

Spoilt child, vain child
Sin born from love so wild
Mighty powers now rage sublime
Mystery born of scheming time


Chords of loss, strains of love
Soul's music wrought above
Purpose born of light's will
Born not for the dark to kill
