Bear, Badger, Ghost (Part VI)

Crab, Kraken, Eel rolled up a tide
For Kraken to take with
To hold the heart of sea inside
The ocean’s deepest myth
As he climbed clouds to reach and take
His place in deep sky’s width.
Bear walked the ridge of Kraken’s wake
Still bent to woodland care,
Sharp Badger let go all her claws
For Crab to wield and wear,
Ghost of the mountains dropped their cause
And settled into Bear.

Eel swam the rivers up to see
Crowned Kraken of the woods,
A mountain also of the sea,
With all their mad and good.
