Chapter 3 - Birds of ill omen

Erebus of the day and Selene of the night observe each other in turn

as though to acknowledge the presence of one another from their respective territories

Peacocks stands aside, sentinel, draped in lustred hues.

but the evening star steers clear of the sun, selene with a vision of her own, gleaming,

rousing the eyes of a dark iridescence amidst their twilight calls.

Morning glory is clouded

The eclipse is shrouded with rivalry, veiled in silent murder.

When worlds apart merge, the living begin to wonder

whether intertwining or breaking away is a better choice

regardless though, in the end, the tide is nothing more than a wretched temptation

and if the ripple rewards, it mostly does so with no more than slow-paced anticipation
