Battle lines are drawn in sands stained red.
History repeats as tranquillity is again shed.
Bodies litter impact craters in part or whole.
Every action is another shot at gaining control.
Fuelling division while stealing from the source.
Does it sound like a scream declaring society has run its course?
This uncivilisation pretending that it is somehow higher.
When reality proves such notions are liars.
Marrying of faith with national governance.
Would call it a nightmare if it wasn’t current.
Legalised abduction funded by elected officials.
Dragging off those who voted in a once democracy.
Twisting freedom into only those deemed worthy.
Can you still swear this future has promise to show?
Seems more likely a species stuck in a destructive flow.
Might be best if we crash prematurely.
Mouthful of derision.
Head on collision.
Spitting distance of finality.
Contempt and hatred twinned effortlessly.
With seldom any pause for thought.
Steal what you want.
Kill for sport.
Destabilisation is the key to this game.
Tip the scales and watch it capsize in our name.
Wars are multiplying every god damned day.
Only thing to believe in is our own stupidity.
With faith serving as nothing but fuel for the fire.
Rebranded fascism to serve as a united empire.
