Falling Through Blue Skies
Falling Through Blue Skies
A bunch of drinking angels sitting at a bar, no longer paying attention, laughing
Business was never better, humans having turned sweet Earth Heaven, into hot times hell
Though we shall miss the ice that kept lands dry day and night, high speed winds nice
Blowing roofs off the buildings everywhere, makes flying landings ever so much easier
Birds, tiny angels, winging messages of hope, clumsy humans forever dropping the ball
Falling through blue skies, cosmic dust sucked out of space by Earth’s gravity well
All roads leading to hell blocked, mammoth potholes, virtual liquors not worth a damn
Painted on black velvet, real spigots shoved through, flowing fermented dirt and clay
Three faucets, hot and cold running, sometimes stumbling, grapes of wine feeding the third
Prehistoric people got through ice ages, powering future generations, we can do the same
