Birth and Swallow the fruit of your *****--
with womb and bowels both full of Death
destined to bare that without breath,
Earth, Mother of lifeless creation.

Breathless life fills the canyons and peaks.
Worshiped for providing a lie,
Mother Earth we hear your actions speak,
and by them we live to die.

Strive and pant.
Consume and devour.
This is the curse:
death, work, and lifeless birth.
