The Mammoth

As a creature of extinction
It had walked the earth
Trembling the weak with its careless steps.

Sharpened its tusks
Gathered his flock
Skinless were led into winter.

Only the mammoth survived the biting cold
Alone it reigned trampling their bones
Unmindful on an empty windswept ground
It monstrously came marching down.

To find new marionettes
Something to sacrifice
But there up on its back was a blind passenger
With rage it pulled its forefeet up towards the blizzard sky
Berserk it dragged its head from side to side
Yet its unknown rider managed to hang on
For a moment tamed this monster.

With growls of insanity it kicked and pounded the ground down forming craters of anger
Still its unknown rider managed to hang on
For a moment tamed this monster.

Powerless all it could do was obey
But its passenger was bewildered about which way would lead to her safety
And which way with life she would pay.

The beast turned and mounted the top
Towards its survival and her frostbitten death
The inevitable cold Her whitening face
Inescapably destined to kill the lives it led
Massive it controlled them.

Their addiction on which it fed
They failed to see that its conviction was of no mercy
Of no good deeds
Gathered his flock
Skinless were led into winter.

Only the mammoth survived the biting cold
Alone it reigned trampling their bones
All beings were its enemies
Could not waste its life on them.

Was frightened when this one nearly steered its course
Knew not yet its course would come to an end
The mammoth laid her down
Its rider its last victim
Fear now lit up in its eyes
Had killed the Innocence Aurelia.
