The Carrion Call |
| Call of the carrion crow, civilized man had no friend |
| Whale of the silent sea, the ocean is yours, they’ve left it empty |
| Hawk and the emerald dove, soar and sail on wings above |
| Across halcyon streams, to a place where madmen once would dream |
| Cast your senses, to another world |
| Back a millennia, another time when |
| Savage squatters, remade the earth |
| And Gaia screamed |
| As she was raped |
| Then after, thereafter, she took revenge |
| Rusting towers, roots spreading |
| Asphalt cracking, under live oak |
| Vines entangle, the shells they once called their homes |
| Termination, billions composted |
| Germination, merged cadavers into peat |
| Resurrection, food for the earthworms |
| Fertilizing dead sward in turn |
| Solitude, sacrosanct, as Gaia speaks through whip-poor-wills at first daybreak |
| Propagation, feces and flesh fructify |
| Sown asunder, corpses blended with the soil |
| Transmutations, spill forth from Gaia’s womb |
| Life comes screaming, overdue, on a landscape free of man |
| Beasts of a broken line, fill the void on silent earth |
| Heed the carrion call… rebirth |
