Demeter's Reckoning

The Reaping Willow:

Once upon a time

When I seeped with wisdom

Nestled deep in your earth

Nurturing mankind from its birth

Your weeds have borne steel

And I weep for your hunger

As your forces grow stronger

It is I who remembers your crimes

Ignorant

To the blasted fields and wilted air

Complacent

To a fallen future and a fate laid bare

You would gouge your own Mother from within

To beget dust and skeletons.

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.
