The Red Men and the Messengers
Waves of fire waltz through the night sky 
 Serving as messengers warning of what’s to come
 His army is miles wide and growing by the seconds
 Everything he conquers in his path 
 serves as fuel for his strength 
 
 His men will not tire
 nothing will extinguish their fire 
 decorated in blazing red attire they serve from blazing chariots 
 to conquer 
 Destroy
 Oh, how the Red Men enjoy 
 to destroy 
 
 The doves are the first 
 
 to hear the messengers silent cry
 These messengers are mute 
 all they have are wild
 
 silent gestures 
 which they paint into the night sky 
 In the form of billowing smoke 
 
 And so they trill their warning trill
 as to warn all the other animals of the Red Men’s 
 Plan 
 The torpid turtles and sloths are the first to hear 
 The warning trill
 Then the elephants and the zebras 
 and soon all the animals in the animal kingdom
 
 Start on their journey to a safe 
 
 haven
 
 together
 
 forever
 In one long line circling the perimeter of Earth
 
 And finally a person opens their ear
 
 And hears the warning trill
 But it is too late 
 The red men have arrived
