Clarions blasted as an inferno consumed the skies
As Her surface was forged anew, She lay waiting for dawn to break
Astral cavalry
Laid siege to this static plane
Burning mineral rained down
Bringer of our elemental burden
The sun rose behind ashen skies as silt begot us
Our gaze split the night with more radiance than a million stars
These wastes bore life
How we fear to lose what we've stolen
Hoe gave way to the pick
Pick to beasts of machines
Raping the soil
And consuming the weak
All those who can see
Made slaves to their lethargy
No father for guidance
Away from
Matricidal industry
The aureole was painted empty
Her body, diseased and broken
Her children, bred to slaughter
Spake She, "My son is a killer"
May Her roots crack every foundation
Strangle the columns asunder
