Shining Things

it was cold
and the roof was made of bones
we will carry the berries
in our mouth

you must learn, you must

(no)

ask me where i run,
i run another way
to the fields in the cold
the berries are too cold
blood red berries
on the ground
blood on the ground

we shall help ourselves to a roof of bones
hung with shining wires
help ourselves to misery and death





(a paraphrasing from watership down by richard adams)
