Knight of Wands

Knight of Wands

The herald on horseback brings tidings

Message opening out of many things

But to bring a word of sorts, not war

Armour is dignity, and nothing more

The wand is held as a banner here

To proclaim the knight is drawing near

At speed, in haste, and always moving

There is no permanence, no improving

Simple motion coming from without

Can cause disruption as he comes out

Into full view, while in the distance

Pyramids speak of permanence

So far away, so unlike the speed

Which seems to be his greater need.
