HYMN TO THE GREAT BEAST

It has been many years now
since I last saw the beast
I've spoken to many people
Who want to forget him
forget he ever existed
They felt diminished in his presence
I felt it deep inside
when he looked at me
I felt the song of the wild
and I rejoiced

They tried to break and diminish him
Dragging him through The Burning Court
He emerged from it stronger than ever
They say he is dead now
Dead and buried, I doubt it
I feel him inside, outside
He taught me my own strength
We may try to hide from the wild beast
We can never escape it
It's us...forever

He mirrors humanity to me
with all his strength and weakness
Everything between and beyond
"good and evil"
He is ever present
