The journey

A Distance, between the cave and the cavern-
near 100 leagues
He must- complete the journey quickly for he has-
To re-energise his body, with the life source of old

Frozen- ice shards- are his- prime fuel
With this in mind he begins running- as he gains speed his heart is explosive
Travels downhill between rocks and bushes- already his cave is barely visible

And now his body finds a new level- a great increase!
The hills are building- a wall of rock and snow before him
A narrow opening approaches fast as he keeps driving onwards

Whistling- is the wind past- his furry ears
He is almost in (an) hallucination-
but not until he reaches the cavern-
Will the complete euphoric condition-
render him a slave to his soul

Almost there! He made good time- his hunger, to be realised
Through huge woods- sees icy desert ahead, beyond it- the mighty cavern…

The creature's body- it's very desire (and drive)…a power so old…
Borne alongside time is his breed and his ancient biddings- and splendour-
Fear his 16th cycle……..

…………..The journey…it…continues…..
