Published on high stone walls
Battered by bullets
Scratched out by iron sticks
Wrecked by drifting ruins
Burnt into ash, spun
Into typhoons to boiling seas
Ingested by cloudborne plankton
Evolved to survive hellish heat
Three million years on
Astroarcheology deciphers it
Discovers why they fled this world
We must toss our sorrow into space
Will you prove strong enough to hear?
