Let every stream which aches the mind be crossed;
Let every empire fall to cinders,
every hawk turn to stone,
every eagle sleep as a carcass.
Every rume, and rumble in pits
Let every shudder, shake dry bones;
Let every jaw crack under the anvil,
every needle pierce the eye,
every shard scar the mouth.
Every smell, and taste in anguish
Let every ladybug scamper your chest;
Let every mantis weep on your toes,
every spider whisper you oracle,
every cricket croon an elegy.
Every insect, and pest in fray
Let every foot feel warm blood;
Let every lung wheeze stole air,
every lip lock an escape,
every hand feel a kin soul.
Every life, and moment, its breath.
Let;
