I watch you betray yourselves And She is too withered to care. Once upon a time They beseeched me for guidance Groveled on their knees For the wisdom of the trees Now I reap their disease! Their pitiful defiance These dregs of science In sorrow and hatred entwined Decrepit crops unsought by mankind Scarecrows laid bare for the starving soil. You would choke willingly upon your Mothers ashes And rue in millennia of Reckoning.
