I guess this is a good bit more than one line, but...
I'm guessing not many of you will know these lyrics...
Every thread of creation
Is held in position, by still other strands of things within
In an earthly tapestry, hung from the skyline
Of smoldering cities, so gray and so vulgar
As not to be satisfied with their own negativity
But, needing to touch all the living, as well.
Every breeze that blows kindly
is one crystal breath
we exhale on the blue diamond heaven
as gentle to touch as the hands of the healer
as soft as farewells whispered over the coffin
we are poisoned by venom with each breath we take
from the brown sulfur chimney and the black highway snake.
And every dawn that breaks golden
is held in suspension
like the yolk of the egg in albumen
Where the birth and the death of unseen generations
are interdependent in vast orchestrations
and painted in colors of tapestry thread
when the dying are born and the living are dead
And every pulse of your heartbeat
is one liquid moment, that flows through the veins of your being
like a river of life, flowing on since creation
approaching the sea with each new generation
you are now just a stagnant and rancid disgrace
that is rapidly drowning the whole human race.
And every fish that swims silent
Every bird that flies freely
Every doe that stops softly
Every crisp leaf that falls
All the flowers that grow
On this colorful tapestry
Somehow they know,
That if man is allowed to destroy all we need
He will soon have to pay with his life
For his greed.
