Æther Fly
-David Harris
Æther Fly, Æther Fly
for though we slow
your lift can fly,
and sing a healthy lullaby
this shadowy dance
these tangential rays
our future strewn a-bout,
the end of days
chaos rumbles
anger growls
the quorum runs ready,
to pitch their fouls
cathartic in nature
redemption in falls
your waters run raging,
through abandoned halls
september that slices
october brings rain
november is crying,
from thanksgiving shame
we barely lost interest
we hardly felt falls
our cretins rightly noted,
for courageous plays with 8-balls
your corpse is now
your defense must wow
together with others
your cro-magnon pow!
cattle run sleepless
sheep start to baa
the dark tree is rustling,
deep within your maw
the floor's at your feet
your head stretched on by
deep within pavement,
dead apples cry
your existence, a mote in god's eye!
but don't you fret, don't you cry,
Æther Fly, Æther Fly
