Ten days

Ten days are not enough
To empty the oceans 
Of toil, tears, and blood
Carved bare and rough
Into peoples’ nations
Tainting fields’ mud ?

But ten days are good
To unfold balled fists
Into the open hands
Usher a noble mood
To clear out the lists
Of feuds between lands

It does not matter who 
Is Jacob, and who Esau
For it is Abel’s cry
Unto us, Cain’s foe
That in this morning glow
Refuses to go die

Has God himself to bow
To His Earth in pains
Chastising the violent ?
Or will this dawn’s glow
Hear that peace remains
Our aim benevolent ?

I am a poor fool lone
Grasping David’s harp
To soften hearts angry:
By these chants alone
Will no sword unsharp,
But words are less hungry

So, pleased be God
Peoples, poets and mothers
And may a table be set
At a look, at your nod
To welcome sides, others
And us alive be let

DONA NOBIS PACEM / GRANT US PEACE

Today is the fifth #MusicalMinute featuring PCS 6-z40 this month.  Eagle eared listeners will notice that I like to allude to previous occurrences by recycling melodies, motifs and rhythms.  This month continues to focus on experimentation with a view to creating a much longer work next year.  However, feeling remains paramount.  What do you think?

The World of Warcraft Soundtrack was composed and arranged by Jason Hayes, Tracy W. Bush, Derek Duke and Glenn Stafford. It was released on November 23, 2004 together with the collector's edition of the game.[1] The soundtrack can also be purchased via the Blizzard Store, iTunes or Amazon.

It features most of the compositions featured in the original release of the game. Many of the earlier Warcraft game soundtracks are referenced in the composition of the score. Stylistically, the soundtrack is closer to that of Warcraft III than any of the previous titles, which may be due to the fact that the same man, Jason Hayes, was the major contributor to both soundtracks. All tracks with the exception of any vocals are synthesized.
