Zywa
The Museum of Legends
The apocalypse survives any peace
harvests fail, authority falters
and breaks adrift, disgruntled
sons are born and
new wars are fought
From the wounds grows prosperity
that belongs to someone else
to a wolf
in sheep's clothing, to appearances:
a treacherous temptation
to entomb ancestors
in the Museum of Legends
and to forget their mission
under the banner of tradition
Long live the New Age
Just wait, watch
the signs, these
strivers will also be lost
doomed to downfall
as foretold
