The Day The Deaf Went Blind - Dawnbringer

The world disappeared

But only for an instant

Then boundaries died

And shape went extinct

And the world reappeared as blackness

Nothing was something

As huge as a thousand oceans

They ripped pages out of books

To build their fires

They felt the earth vibrating

Like a newborn child

They stripped off all their clothes

They gave themselves new names

Even god himself fell apart

Life itself became profane

Notions of nations became a joke

All bodies became beautiful

On the day the deaf went blind

The world disappeared

But only for an instant

Then boundaries died

And shape went extinct

And the world reappeared as blackness

Nothing was something

As huge as a thousand oceans

They ripped pages out of books

To build their fires

They felt the earth vibrating

Like a newborn child

They stripped off all their clothes

They gave themselves new names

Even god himself fell apart

Life itself became profane

They touched grass for the first time

They made love with

Every inch of their bodies

On the day the deaf went blind

They touched grass for the first time

They made love with

Every inch of their bodies

On the day the deaf went blind
