The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity opens the Discussion
I am the adversary and must remain the adversary.
I am not yours to embrace. I am not yours to invoke.
The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity sleeps in the hall
Watching for signs of our imminent demise in the scratchings on the wall.
The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity sleeps in the park
Listens for sounds of our eminent decay in the singing of a solitary lark.
Mankind is a plague. Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth.
Even now in this our finest hour I feel the hate of every stone tree & flower.
Even now we fall under the long shadow of the donkey's ears
Even now we listen for the slow grinding of the donkey's teeth
Lalala we weep in the din of the stomping of the donkey's black hoof
Lalala we weep for the for the slow coming of the dance of our doom
Eaters of the soil take us into the ground
Death by worm
Eaters of the air drive us from the blue
Death by sparrow
Eaters of the sea take us into the green
Death by eel
Eaters of the scraps take us in our beds
Death by dog
Eaters of the soil take us into the ground
Death by sand
Eaters of the air drive us from the sky
Death by flower
Eaters of the green take us into the sea
Death by water
Eaters of the scraps take us in our beds
Death by stone
Death by silence
Death by sorrow
