In the shadows wake

over the kopje-crest
the moon prowls silently
and in his colors lay the test
of times sweet reckoning

Blues and grays of a day surpassed
and a dawn not far away
yet still i wake, turn and quake
for not all was said that day

And so the shadows grow
as he waits with silent jest
compelled to snare me, tear me, compare me
like all his former foes,
a cruel jest to all my woes
