Python's tail

Python's tail

Thy look this day in mercy's brookย 

Beneath a blue sky in a place ย desolateย 

The empty streets grey until a chariotย 

Lifted thee soul up to safety's nookย 

~

Flew into this sky towards Apollo

His hands of steel beckoned theeย 

Come home now wailed the wallowing seaย 

These bright stars shelter anย ocean's glow

~

Bring forth healing, bring forth lightย 

This heart in danger of Python's tailย 

We are desperate lovers who in this time, failย 

Have mercy upon us shameless nightย 

~

We are desperate lovers who in this time failย 

Have mercy upon us shameless nightย
