Strigine and stellar-signed striding it transpired,
That folly folk logic had fountained its flight.
A dusk-wrapped doctrine dusted life with decision,
And came warring, arcane with a Wiccan-inked warrant.
The rubric nocturnal knocked the knowing knell,
Purchasing pageants with a purpose abstruse.
Until condemned caprices conceded the movement
Of mundanity’s munificent munition of action.
Proud with prophesy and prowling with promise,
Held captive in dreaming with captained illusions.
From pinioned hypnosis to pinnacled opinions,
Clement qualms cleansed in clearheaded cleaving.
As illusive, the illegible, illustrated the illimitable,
To a penitent company, penumbral and compounded.
