"Death walked along a moonlit path,
Deep into woods unknown.
Flora and Fauna there he met,
Half foliage, half bone.
Harmonious and balanced trine.
So happy were they three,
Until a secret rendezvous
Brought Flora's jealousy.
Green tendril limbs shook earth below
And trees obeyed her will.
On green and purple weaponry
Fauna's red blood was spilled."
