I
and regard the own inductuon of our flesh;
it is strange to realize the world might be quiet,
and odd to believe that our lives reside in mountains.
Stilly sticks the water to Its monument
because children don't see out of their eyes for blood.
II
Trickle down your tears to burry in blood
what we so indoctrinate in our thoughts --
in case we will to monument
in abstinence -- in want of intermediary flesh.
His death finds person in His mountains
and, by his life, finds a noise in the quiet.
III
He can not stop for Those to be quiet;
even when there are dictations to be inferred by blood?
Humanity did not find salvation in the mountains;
nor did Those find ignorance in their thoughts.
What he did find was simplicity in our flesh
and because of Those, we're stifled in a monument.
IV
We stand to give Thoes, and him, a monument --
while the world slips in quiet
thought, instated out of our own flesh.
We even falter in the pool of our own blood,
because we can not give God our thoughts,
as we slowly creep our way to proverbial mountains.
V
Give me your lungs and your toes in mountains
and I will trade them for a larger monument.
In hindrance, but light, to you I release my thoughts,
so that my own mind can be quiet;
because our of my mind exerts blood,
and your company comes to steal my flesh.
VI
By rivers It gives to you Its flesh;
and in gorges It refreshes the mountains.
Its lies contort to standard Its blood,
and give to Its mother a monument.
To the world we see Its quiet,
and to heaven only does It give Its thoughts.
It is the only flesh to be corrupted in monument;
and therefore after to mountains I can sustain quiet,
because the children's blood is what motivates my thoughts.
