Silent The Rotor

Strobes and oceans, blinking motion
Ships that sink from sight
Desperate hands chase morse code shaking
Charts, which come to life

But hidden deep in chambers sleeping
Silent figures stir
Woken ancients, conscious
And I wish we’d left them there
Elemental spirits take the air

Silent the rotor spins
Would someone keep my secret?
The trouble that we’re in

Silent the rotor, rotations and orbits
Sins of angels, reverberation
Strobes on water, the waves breaking over me
Flash all stationary, revelation
Great expector, now awaken there

Silent the rotor spins
Would someone keep my secret?
The trouble that we’re in
You came here unobserved
You hardly know me
Forsake my every word
