Written by Daniel Rubin (2016)
We looked for
Eden on Earth.
And sneaked in the
Garden of Eternity.
Nobody. Empty.
Everything frozen in
Autumn sunset.
Wines, trees and grass
Wriggled for sunshine.
The rocks awakened,
Mumbling about
Dark and ancient secrets.
All this became ours,
But we didn’t know
What to do with this
Enchanted Kingdom.
The night fell,
And the Hounds of Fear,
Started wandering
Freely in the moonlight.
Escaped the horrors,
Getting home, I realised,
There is nowhere to go.
And we are no longer one.
