Sky Over Dustland
January 20, 2011
Dustland under sky
A crimson sky
A fairytale sky
The kind where the prince
The beautiful princess
The valiant steed
Ride off into that fairytale sky
Dustland does not birth princes
Nor princess nor stallion
but Farmers and donkeys
And brittle corn husks
And hopeful skies
Impassable
That unreachable sky
Dustland under sky
An impossible sky
A fairytale sky
A place for a fantasy
Where none will exist
Whence none can live
That dustland sky
