Mythic Descendant

The goddess of earth

Coatlicue

poisonous snakes

as her skirt

Severed arms

ripped off hearts

skulls of sacrifice

on her collar

Aztecs - her faithful people

battled - to keep her satisfied

prisoners as their offering

pleased the goddess of mother earth

This cruel goddess

was now pregnant

magically fertilized

the coming god of gods

Descendants in unbounded rage

angry at their mother

they went to kill the infamous one

Fourhundred descendants

followed her to a cave

cruel end of goddess of earth

was soon to come

As the children attacked

the child was born

dressed and armoured

he came to this world

Against his brothers against his sisters

for his mother he fought so well

He saved her mothers life

killed many of her own
