A cascade of lightning startles the firmament
A thousand black hooves clatter
Upon the mountain
Grey plume of dust
Red flag of blood
Blue shining blade of sky
Spark with no cause
Wound with no sword
Fresh skulls and supple bones
Golden helm of radiance
The incantation uttered by no one
The call to arms from nowhere
The message from the clarion
Resounded across deaf hills
Men awoke
And sprayed their blood upon the earth
Spark with no cause
Wound with no sword
Unseeing eye
Blood mixed with blood
