MASS MOUVEMENT
take the current
like the mist
It can’t resist
DECOMPOSITION
does not mean DEPRESSION
take into action
the disintegration
Mass movement
take the current
like the mist
flows to the east
and eat the LAND
without HAND
the north, too short
it doesn’t worth
the south, too youth
I have my doubt
OUT
Mass movement
take the current
like the mist
It can’t resist
far east
east
far north
north
far south
south
far west
west
this isn’t a quest
just the flow
from right to left
MASS MOUVEMENT
take the current
like the mist
enters the sea
no entrance
just the trance
MOVEMENT from above
fall fall FALL
down the hall
become
the HOLE
earth cracking
and crows flying
SEDIMENTATION
without reACTION
SOLIFLUCTION
get into ACTION
MASS MOUVEMENT
take the current
like the mist
It can’t resist
OLD land
NEW land
no END
can’t stand
DESERT is drying
WATER not falling
doesn’t mean dying
but just not diving
MASS MOUVEMENT
TAKE THE CURRENT
like the mist
it can’t resist
to the west
the quest request
no rest
the earth falling
but nothing
TOO much water
the ground too round
to the DRY POND
MASS MOUVEMENT
TAKE THE CURRENT
LIKE THE MIST
IT CAN’T RESIST
