Maudlin of the Well - Clover Garland Island video free download

Yet another track from Maudlin of the Well's "Part the Second".

"The sky draped itself face-down

A pacifying hood

Greyous in any way

And its cage was the dome of

The rainbow

Two-dimensional to some, but

For everyone beneath,

It was Atlas

If you looked up from below

At its coloration

Its bands grew broader

Towards the summit

As the shades short-waved

The most vast color: Violet

I was stuck on Violet, miniaturized

It was four days walk to the blue border

The Land of the Arched Circle

That was Violet.

I imagined the bottom of the Rain Bow

Tunneling through the roots of the Mountain

I walked Violet to the Equator

Where I dug my own grave then died in it

Beaneath the ground I rode the royal hue

All through the Earth for Eternity

And as the sun became too dim

The frame dissolved and

The Greyous blanket fell.

It lay upon the grass until the Morning

When it was hoisted up again

By a spinning Rainbow

Oer the vale."
