Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 Obsidian Legend


Aztec nocturnal god of sky,

Tezcatlipoca, future saw.

Mirror of Obsidian was why

Visions from the mirror were the law.

Then Aztecs shunned this mirror of stone

To follow other gods, and leave

Tezcatlipoca all alone,

Causing god of night sky to grieve.

The rain did fall, the god did cry.

When Spaniards descended upon

Aztecs, they looked to the night sky,

But Tezcatlipoca was gone.


For contempt of Obsidian,

Aztecs into oblivion.
