Chariots On Fire

Chariots On Fire

Physically the idea was designed without consequences
From polarized pictures fogged by judgments
Vision centers drew images far from another time
Sights not normally seen where faces rarely human
Simple embellishments like horns blowers and seats
Thinking on all four wheels animal spirits shine through
Looking deep within, it could no longer be denied
Running on animal time using preconceived notions
Mechanized dinosaurs had been brought back to life


Strong caves replaced by houses weakly anchored
Water dripping from cracks now surged from pipes
Cars became focal points the center of destruction
Composite steel bodies with rubber claws and big feet
Built to withstand climatic whirl wind disturbances
Exhausts billowing out from dragons walking the streets
Machine like tornados sucking up large pieces of ground
All that you put in it is spewed out as spent garbage
With a microchip brain without a dead man's switch
Without warning a virus could sneak in and steal it
So informed I keep mine chained to a large oak tree
