throw your tantrums the quietude will not be televised
some tongues need to be taught a very special lesson in diabolical debauchery
not too long ago dwarves mined echoes instead of ore
in volcanic sand a unicorn draws labyrinths with its horn
beneath boots the earth splits and the mutiny of nature continues
a forest recites your lore in birdsong seven moons long
vile beasts disguised as children ringing bells and laughing along the pale river
heroes devolve from the trauma and crawl back into cocoons
one vision shows that you never left your glass prison and another shows you trying to stay afloat in a catastrophic whirlpool
