Manning broke into a run and we ran after, Revois

trotting a right smart, sick as he was.

(But he wasn't sick longッhee!)

We looked down and saw what we saw.

Manning turned red at the sight, and why not?

For greed's a fever, too.

He grabbed me by the rag that was once a shirt

and asked if it was just a dream. When I said I saw

what he saw, he turned to Revois.

But before Revois could say aye or nay, we heard the thunder

coming up from the greenroof we'd left behind,

like a storm turned upside down. Or say

like all of earth had caught that fever that stalked us

and was sick in its bowels. I asked Manning what he heard

and Manning said nothing. He was too busy looking

into that cleft, down a thousand feet of ancient air

into the church below: a million years of bone and tusk,

a whited sepulchre of eternity, a thrashpit of prongs

such as you'd see if hell burned dry to the slag of its cauldron.

Arr! Yes!
