An [bad word] expanse of geography
An aerial photographer over-exposed
To the cartologist's 2D images knows
The areas where the water flowed
So petrified, the landscape grows
Straining eyes try to understand
The works, incessantly in hand
The carving and paring of the land
The quarter square, the graph divides
Beneath [bad word] a country hides

 [bad word] my train of thought
Lines of longitude and latitude
Define and refine my altitude
[repeat]

The curtain's undrawn
Harness [bad word]  no escape [bad word] and peaceful, duck, flat, lowland
Landscape, canal, canard, water coloured

Crystal palaces for floral kings
widespread waving span of wings
Witness the sinking of the sun
deep breath of submission has begun

 [bad word] my train of thought
Lines of longitude and latitude
Define and refine my altitude
