upon this swiftly tilting planet
young creatures struggling to stand
damp bodies glistening and gleaming, seeking out purchase
Bright feathers fanning, spreading over the land
And night we herald with our voices
Tangled melodies ephemeral and strange
To greet dark shadows flicking and dodging into the darkness
And grace their hungry vision, naked and shamed
And we are fireflies
We are scouring the landscape for our friends
And we will walk this road forever
We will never make amends
And we are young immortals
We are challenging the titans to this throne
And we are in this fight together
We will never walk alone
And such a flame around which we are reeling
A shifting axis struggling to align
the landscape shuddering and heaving, lurching and sliding
Searching and calling, shrieking divine
And we are new
We are unmade in daylight
now subdued
drifting slowly out of range
Silent and shaking, speaking only in whispers
Rattled and shaken, empty and strange
And we are fireflies
We are scouring the landscape for our friends
And we will walk this road forever
We will never make amends
And we are young immortals
We are challenging the titans to this throne
And we are in this fight together
We will never walk alone
And I am in ecstasy
Mouth agape eyes roll back in my head
And yours is shrieking breath inside of me
(roll ahead, roll ahead)
