the shadows dance
in the darkness
where osiris sleeps
beneath the duat sky
as anubis weighs
hearts against feathers
pitch black tears
swell the mighty river
ra’s boat creaks
as day is born anew
in phantom rays
refracted on the
viridescent shells
of scarabs caught midfeast

I liked the use of Egyptian mythology in this poem. I haven’t seen that used often.
