END

the sun diverges
saturated in pungent red
sinks below the pale light
growing, through the root's
protein to build the green
it dies a second life
the blackness calms the soul
in the seed it used to grow
earth disintegrates
with the flash of a fault
down it sinks to the bottomless
pit, leaving a trail of mankinds'
money on it, well spent
blood forms from all the sad
mutation is free to grasp
our minds are kept numb,
memories stay sutured
our thoughts remain ruptured
