Elephants trampling the young corn
With clouds as indifferent bystanders
My tears soaking new growth
That will never reach maturity
While the Universe watches
A double rainbow born of tears
Fades into the mountain
Leaving a vacuum of hopelessness
Over a sea of forgotten promises
While the Universe watches
Rose bushes murder the children
With thorns made of recycled war heads
And laments float precariously
On anger filled dead rivers
While the Universe watches
Prayers are lost in icy snowstorms
Hope is nestling with long dead dinosaurs
Happiness morphing into empty darkness
With love pulled like weed from the ground
The Universe had finally turned away
