Wasp Honey

How the plants will grow Winding tendrils creep All around the room Choking busts and making cracks in the walls So the water can get through Blood red trumpet flowers Beckon hungry beaks to their poisonous blooms How curious the hummingbirds won't fly Close enough to get caught in the fumes No bees or even ants will risk their lives Only the wasps are making honey A thousand years ago Stood an alter bronze Briefly pardoning lowly trespassers in holy halls Now dappled sunlight lures Those of us who might See the miracle of a beautiful disaster How curious the buzzard's deadly dive There's no prey left but there's the thrill of the ride One day these stones will turn to dust But still will twist eternal vines Un deux trois quatre Et quand on se rapproche Personne ne sait combien De temps il faut attendre Avant l'arrivée de la fin Et c'est comme ça on danse On danse dans l'infinie On danse dans l'infinie Dans l'infinie C'est curieux ce poisoneux parfum Quel sacrifice va nous sauver cette fois Du cancer de la vie éternel Ou rien ne change Rien ne change Rien ne change And I have come to drink the nectar Face the specter in the ruins Oh I have come to drink the nectar Drink the nectar Drink the nectar
