merciful appetite of death's will enchained
                                the banshee ablaze in dazzling dress of wind
                                the icy shuddering crush of end untold
                                heed and remember a lifetime scattered
                                humbling unfruitful self frightened below
                                unbridled justice delivered in wailing tongue
                                lightning sheets cutting darkness sharp
                                the face of sin unsatisfied in glare
                                seen shattered in a flash of unbelief
