These were once heroes’ names
In the world before this one
Remnants of the planet Spring
Before the invaders from Winter came
With their long moons and guns
Survivors of an elite guard
Of fierce and handsome fighters
Gold and silver in their shirts
Emissaries of the Emperor Sun
Who worshipped no one but himself
And the son and daughter at his side
How long that planet ruled
Before its fullness died
In a few flowers
