Seat of Sacrifice (Extreme)

To dream of things long lost and gone,
And futures which might yet be won─
Though not by me, lest you mistake,
For others wait, the stage to take,
And while their worth is far from sure,
I bid the falling curtain─pause.
Let “encore” be my final word,
Their epilogue to death preferred.“
─ Tales from the Shadows VII

But I bet those grapes were really heckin’ good.
