@the Warlock Poem by Jordan Legaspi

the warlock

Behind his silence
confrontation between head and heart
-the meditation
and it is the ancient’s noble art;

Behind his calmness
the endless battle between reason and emotion
-the incantation
and it is the generations’ passion;

Behind his craft
the ageless war between forces and charms
-the art
and it is the spell to protect or to harm;

Behind his presence
the destiny between birth and death
-the god’s mysterious trance
and it is the talisman of mother earth.



Note:
The 'the warlock', is one of the characters of the author’s “brotherhood's circle”- the poetry in motion: the angel; the jester; the poet; the philosopher; the king; the knight; the hermit; the elf; the scientist; the priest; the vampire and the alien.
