397 : 5/12/99 : The Flowers of Inertia (The Inertia Machine 31/36)

1,429 : 12 ?


The flowers of inertia
gunmetal petal unseen
from here to ancient Persia
It is written what will be has been
Nonetheless they grow
No surprises monstrous sizes they attain
With nothing to stop them on they go
Need no sunlight need no rain
Beware don’t smell that flower
Intoxicating it’s baiting you leading you astray
They designed it in the same secret tower
It’s designed to suck your color till you’re gray
