Quercus sleeps in permafrost
Pinus holds the ancient loss
Mycelium maps the hidden vein
Xylem drinks the frozen rain
Two suns rise on frozen stone
Roots drink deep where light is gone
Gun metal cold in ancient hand
Seed waits long to understand
Six-gun rests on altar stone
Twin shadows stretch where I have gone
Barrel warm from yester fight
Roots embrace the steel tonight
Two suns rise on frozen stone
Roots drink deep where light is gone
Gun metal cold in ancient hand
Seed waits long to understand
Stratification breaks the seed
Vernalization plants the deed
Rhizome cracks the temple floor
Life returns to claim once more
Sand and snow in equal measure
Time expands like buried treasure
Two hearts beat in root and steel
One purpose makes the frozen heal
Trigger finger finds the pulse
Where xylem flows and phloem convulses
Lead and sap in dark alliance
Temple stands on slow defiance
Two suns rise on frozen stone
Roots drink deep where light is gone
Gun metal cold in ancient hand
Seed waits long to understand
Annual rings record the scar
Healing slow beneath the stars
Germination claims the gun
Dormancy at last undone
Two suns rise on frozen stone
Roots drink deep where light is gone
Gun metal cold in ancient hand
Seed waits long to understand
Two suns rise on frozen stone
Roots drink deep where light is gone
Taproot holds the six-gun fast
Twin suns watch the seasons pass
