An unseen ruler defines with geometry
|
An unrulable expanse of geography
|
An aerial photographer over-exposed
|
To the cartologist's 2D images knows
|
The areas where the water flowed
|
So petrified, the landscape grows
|
Straining eyes try to understand
|
The works, incessantly in hand
|
The carving and the pairing of the land
|
The quarter square, the graph divides
|
Beneath the rule a country hides
|
|
Interrupting my train of thought
|
Lines of longitude and latitude
|
Define and refine my altitude [x2]
|
|
The curtain's undrawn
|
Harness fitted, no escape
|
Common and peaceful, duck, flat, lowland
|
Landscape, canal, canard, water coloured
|
|
Crystal palaces for floral kings
|
A widespread waving span of wings
|
Witness the sinking of the sun
|
A deep breath of submission has begun
|
|
Interrupting my train of thought
|
Lines of longitude and latitude
|
Define and refine my altitude [x5]...
