Fair Birden

Inspired by this image:

‘Moonlight Templar’, ‘White Crow’s Shadow’…
Humans call me many names.
Where they see a flowery meadow,
I see emptiness in flames.

I know all and yet see nothing,
Chess queen at the battlefield…
Someone in the shadows laughing:
“All know, someday you will yield.”

Pure as angel’s halo I am
Holding your soul in my grasp
Like for sanity asylum.
Not a serpent, nor an asp

I am. No ego’s desire
In my stone-cold innate heart.
Craving the end a vampire,
Yet in healing I take part.

…There she goes, though never shares
‘Fair Birden* Memoires’,
From the bottom of the stairs
In the moonlight to the stars…
