One Garden City

The ordinary life 
and the passage of one thousand 
full moons.

Cresting a culture of violence;
when a trident 
bleeds you unethically ?

A cave robber 
becomes god incarnate. A 
finger of land snaps-

and you savagely interrupt
the prayer and send the 
message. Run, brother,run –

for the roots. Nights are 
numbered and the 
blue mountain is burning.


Sexless virginity is at stake !
