Expunging legend's earthly might
The endless creep of shadow's fold
For master primes the westward flight
To twice awaiting hold
The subtle signs of rose's blight
His silent gate is first to see
Awakening to waning light
Without the chance to plea
To close the long unfinished fight
They reign revered as Mother's call
Yet linger lost beyond the sight
Of builder's westward fall.
