Through the Eyes of My Demise

When the ripples unfold, a story untold; far, far away. 
In the brume of the cold, my humble abode: far, far away. 

From a birds-eye view, I watch as they mooch,
Pirates they loot off my roots. 

From the tip of the nuke to the low-lying truce,
Compacted the power abused. 

I cry I cry, far away I cry 
They flow with life but take no form.
Sugar honey coconut from a birds-eye view 
My tears straighten from the bending of the storm. 

At last I feel, the burns and the lies 
Far, far away, through the eyes of my demise. 

Mama I’m home.
