Earth

Death

Water tears away at her,

Ceaseless in its fury.

Wind winnows at her back,

Heedless in its erosion.

Fire burns beneath her skin,

Reckless in its destruction.

Rebirth

Water pulses through her,

Building new veins.

Wind weaves over her,

Winding new paths.

Fire heals old wounds,

Melding the rifts.

Life

She is Ouroboros

She is Earth
