Your rating:
The d.h.a.o.h. opens the book The d.h.a.o.h. opens the discussion I am the adversary and must remain the adversary I am not yours to embrace I am not yours to invoke The d.h.a.o.h. sleeps in the hall Watches for signs of our imminent demise in the scratchings on the wall The d.h.a.o.h. sleeps in the park Listens for sounds of our eminent decay in the singing of a solitary lark Mankind is a plague Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth Even now in this our finest hour I feel the hate of every stone, tree & flower Even now We fall under the long shadow of the donkey's ears Even now We listen for the slow grinding of the donkey's teeth Lalala We weep in the din of the stomping of the donkey's black hoof Lalala Mankind is a plague Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth Even now in this our finest hour I feel the hate of every stone, tree & flower Eaters of the soil take us into the ground Death by worm Eaters of the air drive us from the blue Death by sparrow Eaters of the sea take us into the green Death by eel Eaters of the scraps take in our beds Death by dog Eaters of the soil take us into the ground Death by sand Eaters of the air drive us from the sky Death by flower Eaters of the green take us into the sea Death by water Eaters of the scraps take us in out beds Death by stone Death by silence Death by sorrow The d.h.a.o.h. closes the book The d.h.a.o.h. closes the discussion
