They blame the
human sacrifices on the
toltecs
Abhorred be us
the conqueror´s descent
The Mayans, they
sacrificed babies
when they needed
rain
Human sacrifice
what a despicable thing
said the European conquerors
and massacred
a continent
See the altar stone
where hearts were
torn off
sleep of the iguana
on the Tulum cliffs
Not before the toltecs,
they said
Lo behold the spot
where heads
were cut off
All us Latin Americans
all we have in common
the conqueror´s
tongue
Imagine the beauty
the truncated evolution
Now only a dead
carcass
to preserve
Come and see the beauty
the truncated evolution
of America
Come and see the seed
that passed before bloom
Beauty of Tulum
The walls once turquoise
The new alien practice
human sacrifice
the beheading games
and a feast of hearts
The advances in Astronomy
and Mathematics
all nipped in the bud
And all that is left
the flat headed skulls
