Walker Boh - The Last Druid
S. Cat Sept 13 2005

From the very beginning of my time on earth
I've fought against the tenets of my existence
Questioned and hated what made me different
Spurned society to dwell alone in the forest

My feet have been set upon a certain path
And I must follow where this path leads me
In doing so, I've lost a part of my arm
Yet gained a part of myself thought lost

I must restore that which is in the shadows
Bring it forth into the new light of day
And stand ready to become the last Druid
Something I've fought against all my life

Suddenly this influx of overwhelming data
it boldly invades my mind and body
My very essence clenches in pain
as I attempt to sort and assimilate all of it

Even though I've never walked a path
I now have the foreknowledge of it
I see now through the eyes of others
that have trod this very ground

Their memories are now my memories
and now I finally begin to understand
the extreme enormity and weighty burdens
placed upon a Druid's mind and body.
