When the Flames Grew as High as Trees
Sister Water, while you were healing their wounds,
while you washed away affliction and pain and hurt,
I was taken into captivity. I became an experiment.
They stole me away in the night, and they saught to control my insatiable burning.
They desired my power, my might, and my destructive nature.
I was kept as a slave until they discovered my secrets.
And then, I was taken into the sky, and dropped onto the unsuspecting village.
My flames ravaged all there was. There were no survivors.
I am no longer my own self, but the tool of man. I am a slave to their enflamed corruption.
Sister Water, I have become a monster in the hands of man.
Sister Water, can you free my from the cage that is this existence?
