Human Races the Tortoise |
Once upon a time |
The tortoise and the ocean (the human and the sea) |
Spoke and laughed on the day she ate itself |
Tides swallow |
Mountains drown |
All structures |
Species cleansed |
Hello my dear wall |
As usual, cast enchanting in the sparkling pale dark moonlight |
How has skull been treating you? |
That’s good |
Who me? |
Pebbles now of course |
There’s just well, us, we, my kind and I would |
I wonder if they shouldn’t |
If they even deserve to share in continuity |
Let alone eating of one in the same cycle |
Say, God, I grow wary of watching my face shiver, they shake |
Do you remember a child kicking you in the face |
Slapping backs swallowing sitting and staring gaping up, sane |
And try to bury intense with vocabulary |
Yeah, children are animals |
Sorry excuse for walking dog |
Dog your talking, you’re the 90 percent |
The bay: you’re the two and only too much I know me just like |
You’re the psyche, you’re the cyclones |
And we can build new homes in the sea |
You see |
You’re the mother, and we the animals your children |
Who eat animals, which eat of plants, that need of sun |
But need of you… |
Your life giving weather is an awesome absolute body |
It is your place to search fertile sink, settle, start the chain anew |
I would only ask this once |
Hey hey, I know a way. |
Huff and puff, let’s build, embark, dismantle this Rome |
Foam at the mouth, it’s been a long walk since primordial soup |
Now they run amok, around, on solid ground |
Assuming likenesses of trees |
And pouncing, raping, and standing |
I’ll be smiling on the day they float |
Let 'em sink, let 'em end, let 'em… |
Make reefs and houseboats out of men |
Once upon a time |
The tortoise and the ocean (the human and the sea) |
Spoke and laughed on the day she ate itself |
Tides swallow |
Mountains drown |
All structures |
Species cleansed |
Once upon a time |
The tortoise and the ocean (the human and the sea) |
Spoke and laughed on the day she ate itself |
Tides swallow |
Mountains drown |
All structures |
Species cleansed |
This circle is a breeding ground for the canyon |
Pollution in death |
(Doseone: I should know) |
Too many unnatural sounds |
And influential light making you, an inspirational seemed impossible |
But I’ve watched that stay |
Hollow lakes and displaced inhabitants like I |
Get out of the mean habits of the really loved, you wide scraped sky |
And escaped sea |
In spite of what they mostly be |
Hoping that their God will someday return |
Every time the bar rolls I get more upset |
Settling, suddenly under breath |
Red crumble, rearrange ensemble |
With a swift flow, galliant of galliants adapt |
Humans and beautiful equivalents (duplicates) |
He’s right |
Dear mother, mom, what may, even |
Grown to the edge of instinctive understanding of |
Moreso, unwilling |
We choose to learn to sacrifice nothing |
And of your other creations chased, take a vigil |
We die trying to hide from our dangerous selves |
The unclean beast of women, hunt, full inquiry |
The strictness of their bowels, the building of caves |
And shot the sharp stones to kill better, in fact |
They now run wild, they even poison land, aura, land |
And you with its extract |
Shamefully, apes win the cursed measured, apply and concentrate |
Has in turn regressed, oh you’ve never seen such an evil vision |
They even kill of their own kind to pleasure and gain |
Please help them |
Mean, in the name of fire, let your waves crash, amongst our breaths |
Crash, and cure the air |
Once upon a time |
The tortoise and the ocean (the human and the sea) |
Spoke and laughed on the day she ate itself |
Tides swallow |
Mountains drown |
All structures |
Species cleansed |
Once upon a time |
The tortoise and the ocean (the human and the sea) |
Spoke and laughed on the day she ate itself |
Tides swallow |
Mountains drown |
All structures |
Species cleansed |
I beg of you though, take me first |
Oh please take him first so my last days can be spared |
Of his arrogant ways and self-centred smile |
I cannot prove you otherwise, nor do I dare |
To face a man, is a terrible terrible thing |
Ever see a swimming tortoise? |
We all in the same boat sinking, hopeless |
'Cept I hope to see you stop existing |
You’re so right, that’s why I’ve come to push weak knees within the sand before |
you |
In receded shore lines, life lines and light lines |
To lean dear mother, and plead dear mother |
You take dear mother, our lives swarm back |
Once upon a time |
The shores and the lakes (the land and the sea) |
Met and battled 'til the world became flat |
Tides became mountains |
And mountains swam |
And the abyss rose to meet man (and the sea level rose to meet man) |
And then were all leviathans (and the humans cannot understand) |
And were all in such a hurry (and water ran) |
And we realize were not as deep as we thought we were (and water drank) |
And were all in too deep (and water killed) |
And no man is really dry (and water saved) |
And words like thirst suddenly lose all meaning (and water engulfed) |
And they no longer overlook the sea (and became) |
And they understand what it means to sweat (and the human began to understand) |
And no one can tell (with its lungs filled and burst with waves) |
And everyone is crying more (and laughter on the day she wept) |
And no one can tell (and open to take down the fates into her rushing arms) |
And the ocean spoke no more (and the sea spoke no more) |
