The Mistresses

There comes a time in age of man 
When the earth waves goodbye to the sun 
A lonely tune, a final shun 
Twenty one hundred and twenty one 

Two mistresses at war 
Not counting the genuine 
When the raging goes that far
All angels make a whine 

For the union of the supreme 
Is as mighty as the sun 
The raging in extreme 
Throws the flame that does not shun 

Whether east or the west 
The southeast or the northwest 
Two mighty stones in contention 
Will cast the flame of annihilation

The atoms in agitation 
Will cast the beams of total unrest 
The mighty east and the clever west 
Will shed tear in sour regret
