And bells chimes above the warren of streets
Clear and sonorous above cacophony
The pure tone ringing true
Through all us within
–
From the depths of our filth
On a planet once so magnificent
Turquoise, verdant, lush
Sunk in the landfill we’ve hewn from its crust
–
The clarion call sounds
The hearts of man resound in its beauty
Raising us up from our mistakes
Uniting us in beauty.
