Ritual

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Sep 07, 2022 

Ritual.
Comfort
in ritual.
Dark
forbodding
place.
Ancient,
unknown.
Ancient
times
filled with
uncertainty.
Dangers
everywhere.
Enter ritual.
Special places.
Gatherings,
holding
darkness at
bay.
Group.
Safety in
numbers.
Rituals.
Spirts
of the
woods.
Ceremonies,
keeping evil
afar.
Answering
the unknown.
Rituals,
modernity.
No different.
Soothing
fears
of 
uncertainty.
Rituals,
safety.
Ancient
tradition.
