The Ape

Blue seas red summers
long years in slumber
deaf ears hear thunder
dump lips speak wonders

Red eyes burning through the night
giant wings rise up in flight
on the dark earth choked with life
nature's creature stands upright

See the beast upon the land
kneeling in the burning sand
and his heart beats in his hand

Dead seas long summers
lost years in slumber
blind eyes seek wonders
old hearts beat thunder
