Spirit of of the Moment is a nightborne poem and was performed by First Arcanist Thalyssra during her poetry competition against Lor'themar Theron in Suramar City after the Fourth War.[1]
The poem[]
The whole night sees us,
wretched, beautiful,
beneath those untold, unblinking eyes
we dance, we drink
we give body to the watchful heavens.
Becoming hands and feet,
Becoming.
Here I am—take my fingers to grasp the goblet,
Take my lips to breathe your first air.
Take my feet and learn to twirl and fall—
Tumble and I shall catch you,
Laugh and I shall laugh with you,
Until all of our shining eyes are stars,
And we see each other—one cosmos;
One heart.
