The poem in full: One thin September soon floating continent disappears n midnight sun Vapors rise as ever settles on an acid sea eptune's bones dissolve Snow glides from the mountain ce fathers floods for a season hard rain comes quickly

hen dirt is parched indling is placed in the forest or the lightning's celebration

nknown creatures ake their leave, unmourned orsemen ready their stirrups

assion seeks heroes and friends he bell of the city n the hill is rung

he shepherd cries he hour of choosing has arrived." (ANI)
