The Emeryld Ryders - Tied in the Seam

I am taken to know
That the clever among us will loathe
The helpings of air that our enemies share
Into pressure that stiffens our bones

A cold compress lifted by steam
From tempers that flare in between
The night and the dawn
In our stories, long gone
The lessons tied up in the seam

That I pass on
To an audience primed for a fight
The truth to these words as the sky to the birds
You will know by the ease of my flight

It's the steel and wood
A fiction where fantasy stood
A poem in the shade or the sting of a blade
Whose intentions were known to be good

Turned bitter by age
And wisdom once thought to be sage
Is a rigid rule book, lettered ink hand to crook
Nearing the volumes last page

That I pass on
To an audience primed for a fight
The truth to these words as the sky to the birds
You will count as a star
Steady yet far
In the night
