Earth Is Dead
(Johan Bengtsson/William Blake)
Earth is dead!
Time spent to build weapons
To steal and achieve… what?
Le petit massacre?
Hear the voice of the bard
Who present, past and future sees
Whose ears have heard
The holy word
That walked among the ancient trees
Calling the lapsed soul
And weeping in the evening dew
That might controll
The starry pole
And fallen fallen light renew
O Earth O Earth return!
Arise from out the dewy grass
Night is worn
And the morn
Rises from the slumberous mass
Turn away no more
Why wilt thou turn away?
The starry floor
The watry shore
Is given thee till the break of day
