37. Eagle Elephantine

It keeps ticking

How you decide on who lives

Let them drown but once, twice

Shaking terra firma at speed

Planets come and be amazed

I am wise, prize, disguise

Swimming 'neath your telescope

What makes mathematics of the fallen...

To maps of soul harbours

Trinkets of base metals

Petals from a black orchid

Dancing, a tonne at a time

When I grow up...

Want to be a baby elephant

Dry sand and wet dew

Decipher ancient scripts

From the time of Moses.
