Babylonia : Part One - Noah the Kangaroo

Babylonia : Part One - Noah the Kangaroo And so it was written: The one who shall come. The one who shall free all the animals! And take them all home! Babylonia was shown to a Kangaroo named Noah, In a dream he had in the middle of his life. His body shook and he kicked his love out of bed; She jumped up and hit her head, On the ceiling and then she began to cry. As she stood there weeping, She couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Noah raised to his feet, in the middle of his dream. He walked outside and she followed him, but she could not see. Noah was not alone, as he walked down to the sand. For three days and nights, he wrote his words using his hands. His family had thought he’d lost his mind, For he never opened his eyes to write. They thought he was sleep walking; But somehow, his words in the sand began talking. They spoke of a Heaven for all animals; His wife brushed her tail through some of his work And called him a fool. But by the end of the story, Noah had gained an audience And they all gave him a round of applause, When he woke from his dream; As they could see he was serious. The Kangaroo named Noah, Was going to show them the way. Babylonia had sent them all a calling; Noah had shown them all their fate. Our destiny lies to the east; A place of adventure and mystery. Our new home to enjoy with heart, Our destiny is calling for us to make a new start. Let us all leave this place, Let us all leave this human race; To their man made apocalypse, I will show you the way. And so it began… The journey of Noah And every other animal; ‘The Journey to Babylonia.’ The Animal Paradise, To escape the ruined jungle life. A new jungle awaits us all, At the end of the line. Let me direct the Elephants and Rhinos, To clear us all a path to Heaven, from this Hell. Let us all feast! Let us all mate! Let us all sleep a slumber of the Gods themselves. Let us all enjoy our Heaven. Let me show you, it is worth the wait… (C)2013 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
