the blade's passage

the blade's passage

 

 

in the aftermath of myth

some things parlay

into fact

just by mere act

 

turning disbelief

to a labyrinth 

of intellectual play

 

verses longing 

from inside a heart's sheath.

Most thought provoking philosophical lines of contemplative poetry.

Your first stanza makes me think of religious books of all faiths written thousands of years ago. Religious fanatics who literally believe this stuff word for word. This is probably way off j, but I saw the blade dripping red. Please enlighten me:)
