2150

It was dark

Trembling whirlpools and waves lingered

We climbed for days

We climbed for weeks

We climbed to the highest peaks on the earth

But still, the flood rained down

 

We built great ships and sailed

Great monsters fought us from below

Just as the water-bearers struck from above

We wandered the waves , whipping

We sailed between the horses

We sailed between the C's

 

Was this the coming of a new age?

Was this the death of the fish?

What of the light?

What of the sun?

Housed by Aquarian demise,

We fought for each day

 

How long must we wait?

Can we blame the goat?

Zealaz, where are you?

When will your mountain appear?
