about

Inspired by Wilfred Owen’s letters.

lyrics

With a child’s face
He turns, with sword
The front to face.
And observes the work
Of Darwin’s conclusion
As evolution falls
Into its winter season
A harsh frost is cast upon
The minds of men who might
Take us forward into light
The shadow of the season
Is yet to reach him
Though a sodden baptism does await
To determine his place
As he turns to face
With a mans hand
And a child’s grace
