Read Time:46 Second

Before the night feast on the morning sun
And vomit its intestine to smile at noon
I save the glorious mind
Which escalates through the slippery part
.

Before the thousand fowls scatter around
Tilling out the afflicted worms
And raise their preys to the mountains top
To witness their wailing crows
.

Before the Ants defend their hills
Badging their colonies as they profess
Hailing their absolute Queen
Whose appearance shows with the last dig of man
.

Before the empire crumbles by allegory tales
Telling the course with tiny tongues
Whispering their endless mortal’s voice
To accumulate their hopes aback at arms
.

I demand to admonish you my brethren and sistren
I profess you as that verocious tiger
Whose ambition never missed
Till aeon will I bethink you
As being who gave back my true self.
