Susie dead, a search ahead
And half the fauna's made of gears
Seven went out, all full of doubt
To find the source of all their fears
Finding naught they turned to thought
The world around them hid from sight
By a veil that turns all truth to false
A Curse that creates dark from light
Suddenly it came into existence
Smoke stacks belching into the sky
When they approached it moved into the distance
It seemed as though they'd be denied
Standing still they saw it fill
Their vision as if zooming in
Russell's take: it was a fake
An Army decoy, Doppler twin
The true locale, through rationale,
A fake plateau beyond the stream
At a loss, they feared to cross
But it was not as deep as it seemed
Just then Russell asked for a prayer
Maggie turned and gave a silent nod
When she turned back they saw it there
The veil was lifted with the help of God
With the help of God
