    Ra's Last Stand


    A shining obelisk--
    starward, weighty tomb--
    shadow down Earth’s core

    A sky curved aura--
    whispered across the poles
    scored out the earth slow

    A flooded realm--
    sedimental bath of bones
    resined on the last shore

    Mystic tongue erased--
    fused extinct
    melted in the sun’s wake

    Well....it's about the belief that some subscribe to that the ancient Egyptians were from another world.....so it's describing what it might have been like if an Egyptian God landed on Earth as a space traveler.

    I guess it is a bit abstract...although I had hoped the language would allude to it....shiny obelisk, etc.

    Thanks for the comments
