- Orpheus went into the reactor,
- to rescue his love.
- He found her there in constant hell.
- When he gazed into the reactor well.
- What a beautiful blue! Such an etherial hue!
- But he was forced to remain as well.
- Blood welled from every orifice.
- and melted away his material shell.
- What a strange dream was that love.
- Playing his harp across the world.
- His love was volatile and capable of beautiful violence.
- Her hair burning brightly rising high in the sky
- While her feet destroyed all who knew.
- Yet he dreamed of saving her and embracing her beauty
- Though all he found was death and sickness.
- In the end the harp plays alone, with no one to play it.
- And his dream melts like fire into the earth deep below.
- While smoke rises slowly, poisoning the material world.
