I like the rhythm of that.  It reminds me of

 La Belle Dame sans Merci: A Ballad
By John Keats

You might like it, too.

I’ll check it out.

I care most about the words, and how perceiving their meaning sends a chill down your spine, makes the hairs of your neck stand up.

Robert Graves understood this...true poetry acts almost as a magical incantation.

I think that’s why so many are partial to the KJV.
