The earth shudders,
Poison unleased.
Oh flesh, why?
The curse, the curse
Life enchained
The earth groans and
Waits for the Redemption.

Life poured out,
Death seeps in.
The earth cries out!
Putrid taste, overwhelming stench--
The stain spreads.
The flesh corrupts.
All is fouled, all is weary.

The Maker calls!
Enough! Break loose!
Begin again, wash the filth!
Swirling, raging,
Choking, swallowing,
Flesh struggles,
Flails,
Falls silent.
The rage subsides--
Return to your appointed place.
Wait.
All is silent.
Wait.
