    Dark is the sky of our homecoming
    Poisonous be the harvest
    Yet the children eat without question
    Monsters that steal truth and virginity
    Monsters from the deserts far beyond
    Deserts infinite and wide
    Deserts of the doors' opposite side
    weariless was the monsters' journey
    Nonchalantly they pushed against the resistance of the breeze
    For they rode not with the breeze
    And followed no straight path
    The gates opened at the commandment of their spell
    A spell more powerful as the first sun, yet as powerless as the seventh
    They received their following from no hypnotism
    But from the spirit within the children
    The spirit of life, the spirit of the all
    The villagers grew fearful, fearful and jealous of such a power
    Jealous of the deflourement of the other children into their adulthood
    Persecute, attack, and bring down the monsters the villagers did....
    Only to disover that their perceived darkness was light in some foreign form
    Now lay the firestarters in their own deflourement amidst also their guilt
    Learning the ways of the ancient...The ways of the infinite....
    Learning the true base of the soul
    Learning to step into the shadow
    But amidst all the renaissance there were those that never learned..
    Never reborn...Never to ever live forever
    Those confined by their own false ether
    Victims of the tragedy...The tragedy of the soul
    After the smoke cleared the villagers buried their siblings in their new Earth...Only to forget...Forget of new ways and remember those of old....
    To relive the tragedy once again....Victims of their own false, nightmarish ether.


    What do you guys think? I'm pretty proud of it. Please feel free to tell me what you think it means or your perception of the symbolism, plot, and meaning of it.
