Asteria



Something overcame Asteria
Whilst on her infiltrating find
On the lookout for a neighbourhood
When we leave this one behind

Two hundred years was all it took
For us to make our homestead ill
Scouring and devouring
Destructive poisoning at will

Maybe a far-off alien life
Who came and looked at us down here
Said “that’s enough they’re far too rough
We must ensure they don’t come near

Spies living here among us
In deepest seas or forests spread
Sending dire warning messages
“Beware creators of the dead”
