Energy, Being, and Void

Emergence Out of darkness and ice Freezing mountain caverns held tight Elemental crystals bound up light No running water or cool stream's breathe Planet was barren, sea water still Starlight broke through, as galaxies changed It was just me and you Potential and empty form We were there with our starry hair Filling glops of rain as they came Plundering through the tundras Out of energy rearranged Tall trees climbed to their peaks Nothing then was the same Species bred insane It was all a new game Vertebrae and brain, the path to see Monkeys gathered closely, singing tree melodies! No blues were shattering the peace Monkeys breeding furiously Having a passionate shopping spree And look what came to be An upright heart!, countering Nature's grace An ape man heart lifted skyward To contemplate the way Buried subconsciously, dizzying sound Teased the walking ape With fireplace dreams, morphing skull rocks Paint across the sky and palms At every deadly cost! Caves and plains were scattered Splattered through the shaman desert All else is history
