A touch of fingers upon the door
and the panic shoots to my heart
opening the door already knowing
dread and doom lay beyond
Oh great and mighty totem!
what pieces lay on the floor
the tears that keen
the sadness that howls
the agony and fear
all wrecking and throwing my heart
to see your strong visage
torn, cut, bleeding on the floor
Oh great blue husky!
totem of my soul
how can it be
I let someone inside
who turned on us, on me
and while seperated
by drink and merriment
sought out and sedated you
and tore out your flesh
tore out your fur
tore out your life
with a dropped and unworried knife
The guilt and fear
agony and distress
how could I have left you
how could I have forgotten you
how could I have abandoned you!
Knowing I let in
the one who killed you
I clutch your stiff and damp body
cry
scream
keen
my agony and distress
Why, Oh gentle blue!
Oh why have I done this to you?
Author notes
I had a dream last night where I walked into a room of my house to find my totem animal, a big blue husky, dead on the floor with pieces of skin and fur cut out of his back. It was traumatizing and I'm still in pain from it. Any suggestions on how to connect with totems would be appreciated.
