The Monolith 

By Cameron Macdonald

.

Standing the age of time.

Erect, defiant, proud!

Surrounded by the salt of sailors,

Fighting to survive the rising tide.

‘

Grey birds overhead battle Seth’s ocean winds,

As cycles of life tumble

Into the diurnal patterns of Khons!

But, alas, all under their influence crumble.

‘

Now, since time, the black knight stands

Shoulders square to the raging torrent

And the great white charioteers that

Charge to battle and take what they dare.

‘

They hawk not a single molecule from

The great warrior’s granite hide.

And in defeat they recede, regroup and find -

Never will this proud obelisk kneel to Yamm’s tide.

‘

So be for millennia before, and millennia to come,

That mighty twisted black gnarled block,

Like Osiris, will face the wrath of Time’s charging mares,

And each day will cheat them his beating heart of rock.
