Roots to Sever |
| Though wounds were great, and respite scant |
| Life clung to that wretched plant |
| Its skin was scarred, its leaves were ripped |
| Damned to wait, as roots were fixed |
| For every hour, in hopeless fear |
| It felt them leave then draw back near |
| The insects drudged without a sound |
| And tore the plant down to the ground |
| Among them, one drone like any other |
| Stole away to meet another |
| Far from the swarm, the two had hidden |
| Their unborn child, which was forbidden |
| Spiteful mind and eyes unseen |
| Betrayed unto to a ruthless Queen |
| Condemned — the two would die alone |
| Their egg was cast on to the stones |
| An offering to slake the earth |
| Despite its lot, the child emerged |
| From hatching breath, its life was dire |
| In every dawn, the sky brought fire |
| It sought its kind, and as it roamed |
| Out of sight and far from home |
| A pack could see that, left alive |
| The child would lead them to the hive |
| Behind the hatchling, like a storm |
| The giants fell upon the swarm |
| With hungry teeth and gleeful hearts |
| Those hunters pulled the Queen apart |
