One catches scent,
Smoke whole body shivers
The other notices, cranes it's neck left, alert,
Then signals
Another stops in its place,
Somethings is so wrong
Eyes in skies threat. Tell the others
Somewhere Else there's one with two and a oneness, scurrying through the brush
Stops meeting the other
Wind carries a "there's a stranger inside and I'm very scared" kind of temperature
One cries for another one
The one with more form
Did as it has done, walking to the brush into the other
Embraced,
By the limbs
Most would think they were trees
Hold together, forever purified
Packed together, trembling, a little terrified
Round a fire flicker, the exact shimmering intersect
We were once animal, human, something Else
Huddled together for warmth, cauterized
Pack together, something hidden, dehumanized
Something in between, something beneath
Fragile children with sharp teeth
We are (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
Still alive (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
Right (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
Here,
Fragile children with sharp teeth
(Fragile children with sharp teeth)
If the groups of 8 were to leave tracks, (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
There would be 4 sets of footprints, (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
12 vague imprints total (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
4 more if one was tempted (Fragile children with sharp teeth)
It sees a two legged figure,(Fragile children with sharp teeth)
One with four legs smells the destruction off them
They look like what some used to look like,
THEY LOOK SHOCKED,
THEY DON'T LOOK SORRY
NO
THEY DON'T LOOK SORRY
Another which is in the between, far unlike them
Crying
And the children all hear it,
But they Dont, Dont they
One is angry with a roaring light, snarls a deep
"you Dont belong here",
It doesn't have their tongue, it tries it best
They run,
And the children all follow the scent of war
The children are far better at running away than them...
Fragile
ុុុុ with sharp teeth
Huddled together, forever purified
Packed together, trembling, a little terrified
Round a flickering fire, the exact intersect
We were once animal, human, something Else
Huddled together for warmth, cauterized
Pack together, something hidden, dehumanized
Something something in between
Fragile children with sharp teeth
We
Are
Still alive (Still alive)(We are still alive)
Right
Here
We
Are
Still alive
