The Road To Dawn

Posted on October 22, 2025April 8, 2026 by Alice Spurlock

Mystical poem written 10-12-25.

1.
Let us speak together then,
Of the Road To Dawn,
The path we must find,
Through what is to come

First there will be fighting,
And then some will flee,
New nations will be forged,
In alloys none have yet known

On the edges of the places,
Mapped out in letters,
In the places where the numbers,
Become mere suggestion

Outposts will form,
In the shadow places,
On the edges of the mind’s eye,
In the temporary tensions

2.
Outer Olympus,
The name of an island,
Out on the purple sea,
Between Knowledge and Understanding

A place and moment in-between,
A perfect base for a rescue mission,
For all the ones who get forgotten,
When kings and generals fix their gaze

We will fight for those who cannot,
We will protect and we will heal,
We will speak to beasts,
And encounter the spirits

We will make friends,
With the fires of conflict,
And use them,
To cook a hearty meal

3.
War must be devoured,
Transformed and transmuted,
By mystical grace,
Into something new and healing

Embrace the red gods,
For War is the father of Harmony,
And the chosen lover,
Of my goddess Love, Herself

We must become our own champions,
For there is no one else,
We must be wise,
For our world hangs in the balance

But one day we will celebrate,
In the warm light of the rising Sun,
We will dance and feast and make love,
When we reach the coming dawn
