The Path Chosen

It matters not to Hecate

what prayers were made,

or which path was chosen.

Let withered roots and gnarled branches

Become the guide one sought after the most;

Their shepherding whispers be the star

Which shines upon the stray wanderer's route,

From the pathless road the beacons lit,

An outcast's shelter has come into view,

Distanced away from eyes that control

And fangs which mercy never met nor knew,

Secluded from cacophony

Orchestrated by the foulest of songs,

This haven becomes a sacred place

Made to heal and be given life renewed,

No foulest wounds nor stench of hate

Could find respite on these hallowed grounds;

Shadows that writhe and thrive upon scorn

Shall find not even one act of refuge,

Tainted coins made from blood and tears

Never be welcomed nor would be greeted;

And those who carry a sinner's pouch

Be vanquished, slain by the hands of their own,

For there is no justice outside

The boundaries of this castaway land;

Who sits upon the façade called "throne"

Becomes justice, the law, and its hammer,

But kingdoms rise as kingdoms fall;

Justice, too, becomes tainted then renewed,

All to suit the maddened puppeteer

Whose strings become red like scarlet liquor,

All the while, the exiled sanctum,

Away from the caws of the thirteenth crow,

Would come to grow without need for swords

For life was peaceful as horizon's smile,

Let withered roots and gnarled branches

Become the guide one sought after the most;

And when met with a fork on the road,

Take heed of the kingdom thine heart wish for,

Be it through walls or bridges old,

One's own heart knows which path should be taken;

For none shall take the road to ruins

Unless righteous reason made itself known,

And none shall want the isolation

Unless peace was disturbed and needed rest,

All paths chosen was made within reason.
