And then there was another Incarnation that appeared in the North
At a time when cruelty reigned rampant and over peace spread frost
Inhumanity was abiding and love languished pained in grim dungeon
Pristine flowers were crushed by the iron hand wielding a bludgeon
But this manifestation differed from its gentler Balkan brethren
It didnt remain unknown during the formative years to its environ
Childhood provided several opportunities for divine play to reveal
Lifting a massif, or dancing on a hooded serpent, to equal appeal
Falling in love, forming filial attachments, were all in like measure
Vacillating between the twin banks of life's current, a great pleasure
Profound and mundane were its life experience, combined in like amount
Neither was able to perform customary alchemy causing constant rebound
When performing miracles there was a calm acceptance of true self-worth
On being taunted by sibling, childish petulance from heart burst forth
This incarnation's purpose was to demonstrate how to live life pragmatic
Domestic chores, deadly war, were all prescribed in verse quite emphatic
