Swallowing the Ruins Whole

Every tear with its sting busied itself

Gathering from her past

They flew from fragmented piece to piece

Swallowing the ruins whole

The heavy millstones weighing down tiny bellies

Were no match for this resolute air squadron

They were heading to the wilderness to regurgitate her past

Regenerate cell by cell
Rebuild the Lost City

Restore the Land of Milk and Honey

Reclaim the holy and the sacred
Reinforce with cedar's resin

*According to Jack Tresidder's dictionary of symbols, resin signifies immortality, a symbolism based on the 
popular belief that resin is the undying spirit of long-living trees.)
