Dues

Post by Dylan L. Hayes » Mon Nov 09, 2009 12:17 pm

I stand on the bow of a ship called Eve

And felt a thing I can’t conceive

The wind, the rain, the slack in sails

The wood, the cracks, the rusty rails

The crew, the deck, the very hull

The all bend and stop to heed

The sounds of the mother giving seed

An eruption of molten rock

From the volcano send a shock

A ripple through the ocean baring news

The people of Earth have paid their dues
