| Icy shores caked in rasping blood Stain the crisp crust crimson As the traitors tiptoe to the mast Commanding the dusty, summer flood The traitors bite polished fingertips Painted pink by playful prose That command the wind of swollen words Which raises their pointed nose The words do bark a mournful cry That beckons a sweet, silver knife To cut the bonds of life and death And watch the rainbows die The onyx sea, whipped by the wind Does make the white boat tremble As the traitors slowly sip their tea And watch the words assemble The colours do not like the words As they flash, blue, white, green The memory lost on a sea of truth As we wonder what they mean |
