"The restless spirits long to guide..."

Tiw Ecorcism

There are times when Tiw is brought forth and his presence does more harm than good. In those times we must respectfully thank him, letting him know that we need him not.

Lays in wait in impassioned hearts,
Ever there awaiting to spark,
A sheathed blade that's ready to bare,
Wit laden words tongue prept to air,

Bend not to the current growing,
Draw a line and then start again,
Drown out the fire, Down to ember,
Rise from the haze, See all clearer,

Clear seen sights can be seen as red,
Higher thoughts are swift to be shed,
Grounded and anchored to the earth,
Mother from whom torrents are birthed,

Allow stillness to enter in,
Focus in on more distant things,
Drown out the fire, Down to ember,
Rise from the haze, See all clearer,

Have the now be brought to an end,
Stop the refrain playing again,
I bid you farewell higher one,
Return now to your warring throne,
Thank-you for being there to heed,
May I call on you when I've need,
The blade wanting path has now cleared,
No more I've call for you here,

Turn away till the moment can pass,
Be firm facing a torrent's path,
Drown out the fire, Down to ember,
Rise from the haze, See all clearer,
