The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity opens the book

The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity opens the discussion

I am the adversary

And must remain the adversary

I am not yours to embrace

I am not yours to invoke

The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity sleeps in the hall

Watches for signs of our imminent demise in the scratchings on the wall

The Donkey-Headed Adversary of Humanity sleeps in the park

Listens for sounds of our eminent decay in the singing of a solitary lark

Mankind is a plague

Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth

Even now in this our finest hour

I feel the hate of every stone, tree and flower

Even now we fall under the long shadow of the donkey's ears

Even now we listen for the slow grinding of the donkey's teeth

Lalala, we weep in the din of the stomping of the donkey's black hoof

Lalala, we weep for the slow coming of the dance of our doom

Mankind is a plague

Breathing hell into every corner of the rotting earth

Even now in this our finest hour

I feel the hate of every stone, tree & flower

Eaters of the soil take us into the ground (death by worm)

Eaters of the air drive us from the blue (death by sparrow)

Eaters of the sea take us into the green (death by eel)

Eaters of the scraps take in our beds (death by dog)

Eaters of the soil take us into the ground (death by sand)

Eaters of the air drive us from the sky (death by flower)

Eaters of the green take us into the sea (death by water)

Eaters of the scraps take us in our beds (death by stone)

Death by silence

Death by sorrow
