She lay in the dust began to die

Wondering how long it would take her

The scorpion drooled winked his eye

Wondered if he could make her

The pain was right twice as nice

She realised she was in labour

Life was a fight with men and mice

Mind how you talk to your neighbours

She cried in the heat shaking her meat

Sure she needed no friend

As much as this was beginning

It would sure make a beautiful end

The sand blew up in confusion

Salt running out of her pores

That being borne inside her

Was near to the end of its course

Her tits thrust up to Heaven

Her back was arched like a bow

The heat in the mother lay quiet

It was a long way to come just to go

Her body lay limp in the desert

Soaked with the love she gave

Her shadow will lie there forever

Reminding us all of that day

The scorpion wandered all over her body

Vultures stood still in the sky

If this was the end of beginning

Who was born and did anyone die

How those birds searched for her offspring

Craving to beat off her pride

So futile was all of their searching

Nothing that lived had such eyes
