The mysterious Andes
\nFasten your seatbelts
\nWhat\u2019s a matter you scared
\nUruguay seemingly
\nWill lives be spared
\nCrashed in the mountains
\nBroken in two
\nChaos confusion
\nDeath for a few<\/p>\n
Silence,
\neyes open
\nblood on the screen
\nMany are bleeding
\nThe flying machine
\nHas crashed in the Andes
\n1972
\nThe pilot is bleeding
\nA turn of the screw<\/p>\n
It\u2019s cold we are high up
\nLost far away
\nThe air it is freezing
\nNot a lot one can say
\nLots of dead bodies
\nA half an hour to go
\nFriends everyone of them
\nNow so much snow<\/p>\n
With a great
\nA white out
\nWe shadows
\ncrisp footprints all ours
\nPanting
\nthe injured
\nIt\u2019s the first hours
\nSorting the bodies
\nThe dead on one side
\nThe rest of us working
\nWith wretched brows<\/p>\n
Night came ,like crazy
\nEach curdling cry
\nA starlit anomaly
\nWe must ask ourselves why
\nOur plane has crashed
\nSome of us died
\nThose of us living
\nThey are denied<\/p>\n
A true continuum
\nUsing snow
\nto melt into water
\nShouting from below
\nAt aircraft above us
\nWho sail in the blue
\nWill anyone see us
\nHuddled below<\/p>\n
Check out the injured
\nEverywhere snow
\nSolitude whispers
\nWe have to know
\nRescue our only hope
\nThis awful terrain
\nA biting cold scimitar
\nCuts into the brain<\/p>\n
Fear
\nits just everywhere
\nNo food to eat
\nSome eyes glazing over
\nThe frozen will cheat
\nWill beat out a stanza
\nThink of the doom
\nLive for each other
\nThis must not be our tomb<\/p>\n
Starving we are dying
\nThere\u2019s protein outside
\nLots of dead bodies
\nDon\u2019t let\u2019s be denied
\nWe just have to butcher them
\nDesecrate soul
\nCut slices off of them
\nTake back control<\/p>\n
The wind is so dangerous
\nThe hand baggage full
\nOf life giving remnants
\nWe now must pull
\nTogether for all of us
\nMust somehow get through
\nStare over the incline
\nSeeing what we must do<\/p>\n
Boys and girls prostrate themselves
\nThat\u2019s what we do
\nOut of desperation and fear
\nIt is true
\nFriends come together
\nSuffering so
\nSome friends have died
\nWith little to show<\/p>\n
High in the mountains
\nIt is the extreme
\nRemembering pictures
\nWe have all had that dream
\nBut now we are up here
\nDrowning in cold
\nWith a vile freezing wind
\nSomehow
\nto behold.<\/p>\n
Some kind of outcome
\nFear on our faces
\nSomeone must search for us
\nIn all sorts of places
\nThe rule of 3
\n3 minutes without air
\nBy zone
\n3 Days with water
\n3 months without food<\/p>\n
Huddled and shivering
\nProtein outside
\nLiving or dying
\nSurvival
\nPiss black
\n7 days without food
\nEating cigarettes
\nSuckin boot laces
\nShivering
\nPeople are dying
\nPeople are trying
\nMadness is kicking in
\nDelirium. Too
\nSome say just eat me
\nIf death comes before, you
\na modicum of blackness
\nDesolate darkness
\nDamaging disparate
\nButchering corpses
\nWatching the sky
\nWe found a radio
\nHope springs eternal<\/p>\n
Chilean airforce
\nNo survivors have ever been found
\nFight for life
\nTail of plane look for batteries
\nNight traps us
\nGolden sky
\nBreak out of the ice covering
\nMountains resists
\nMust eat
\nNo place for vegans<\/p>\n
Day 17 fifth day of storm
\nThe muse surfaces rhyming slang
\nAvalanche hits us
\nIn this snow and ice we shudder and cry
\nThe cabin full up with snow
\nIt\u2019s easier to close our eyes and just die<\/p>\n
Break out of packed ice
\nAnother avalanche
\nMore dead
\nDepths of dejection
\n30\/10
\nIrreverence
\nIntimidation
\nBreathing is getting harder
\nLaugh and cry
\nLet\u2019s cry<\/p>\n
Let it go
\n71 days ago survivors
\nHelicopters arrived<\/p>\n
I cried with at the end athoughmits just a film
\nWreckage blowing 22\/12\/1972
\nOur story we were all actors
\nA miracle
\nHome coming crowd
\nWhat happened on the mountain
\nCameras microphones
\nDoctors
\nWhat do they see
\nSkeletal bodies
\nGrime on our skin
\nHeroes of the Andes
\nCame back from death to unite with their fathers and mothers
\nGirl friends
\nAnd their children
\nWe looked into the mountains ad all we saw was snow
\nThe answer is on you
\nKeep taking care of each other<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
