This land is blemished With imperfections. From far away, These
buildings Are rocks andPebbles, making theGround uneven.Come watch
as we Smooth the land. Come watch as we Lay down a carpet.These
pebbles of Houses will be gone, As will their occupants.Everything
will shatterInto the sky, and rain back down. Ashes will fall, And
they tooWill be like a carpet.It will be barren, beautiful, and
black. Come watchAs we lay down A carpet. Come watchAs we finish
furnishingYour old home.
