Dark continents hold universal truth
Beneath the sands of ancient human birth
That now has been unveiled, at last, with proof;
What secrets lie in wait inside the Earth?
Thor's hammer wielded by a mighty Greek
A prophet of the bringer of the light
Comes clad in green, protector of the meek
A man-machine possessed of boundless might
Humanity's salvation hangs in doubt
When world-engulfing forces balance, poised
Strange monuments within and war without
And only can be heard above the noise:
"Oh, and your poet Eliot was wrong.
This is the way the world will end its song."
