The Totem

Enter starless night
Wind of steel bites naked skin
Exit sun-burnt day

Fire, it burns bright
It still lusts for gasoline
Quenching endless thirst

Exit icy moon
Sunrise upon shattered land
Enter fiery sun

Winter returns again,
Storms of ice bring pain,
Harsh reminders of men who died in vain
Oh for a little warmth!
Only even a tiny flame
To warm the frozen frame
And deny Hades this battered skeleton
The night passes wearily
It departs before the sun can appear,
Its radiance plays so near;
Return to face the burning day.
