Heathen me

Barren trail of tears
Impregnate my hostile world
Stretch the mountains into years
Ashes into urns

The ashes of my brethren
Carcass of my faith
Cast aside the heathen
God's unholy race

Race across the cornfield
Mine shifts lose their grasp
Subtly seeping of reality
Fades into the mass

Now running to and fro
In circles twice my width
Ashes into urns
Splattered me with grit

Splattered me with puss
Buried my first babe
Dark and foul and swelling
Siege against the plague

A mariner's onslaught
A legionnaires revenge
A shining sea of rot
Hollow eyes unhinge

Barren trail of tears
I plead with thee each night
Stretch the gullies into years
So that i might be buried tonight
