The goddess of earth
Coatlicue
poisonous snakes
as her skirt
Severed arms
ripped off hearts
skulls of sacrifice
on her collar
Aztecs - her faithful people
battled - to keep her satisfied
prisoners as their offering
pleased the goddess of mother earth
This cruel goddess
was now pregnant
magically fertilized
the coming god of gods
Descendants in unbounded rage
angry at their mother
they went to kill the infamous one
Fourhundred descendants
followed her to a cave
cruel end of goddess of earth
was soon to come
As the children attacked
the child was born
dressed and armoured
he came to this world
Against his brothers against his sisters
for his mother he fought so well
He saved her mothers life
killed many of her own
