A Tale Of Future History, christmas child


There is this child speaking
In her mind and in her heart
He guides her path home

She remembers well his birth
From afar she saluted full of love
And awe for our teacher

Then too she was him
But still immaterial, not yet deemed mature
Against the corrupting worldly forces 

The hallowed one preceded her
A sacred beacon, without doubt, without fear
He too stumbled over men 

Now she will give fruit
To the tree he once made barren
He promised to do right

Her family shall remain small
To protect the mother they live off
And species in greater need

The Christmas child of once
Foresaw the trespasses of our ravenous kind
Justly he pardoned but few

Yet those blessed he shields
As his future twin sister has learned
Favoured she leads the tribes
