Three miles further down the road
Lie men with sticks
Their hearts black with gold.
Seven steps leftward off the path
A gator, an emerald
A bloodhound of wrath.
Five miles higher up that hill
Are onyx, amethyst
And blacker colors that kill.
Nine steps forward along the road
His lover the Angel
Her eyes green and gold.
One step backwards off the trail:
Black grass red and slick
A green monster from Hell.
Lie men with sticks
Their hearts black with gold.
Seven steps leftward off the path
A gator, an emerald
A bloodhound of wrath.
Five miles higher up that hill
Are onyx, amethyst
And blacker colors that kill.
Nine steps forward along the road
His lover the Angel
Her eyes green and gold.
One step backwards off the trail:
Black grass red and slick
A green monster from Hell.
