I give up the ghost to new surrender Give in to the last dying ember And let the flames exquisite burn And on every living creature turn Let the serpent, heated, grow Let it feast and reap and sow And watch it eat up every soul And watch it break down every home I give up the ghost to new surrender I give in to the last dying ember And watch it char to quench its thirst And watch the world turn to its worst To see the sphere conflagrant nigh To let the fuel of fire fry Is to see the tide of battle turn To watch flames die as they burn
A little heavy handed, I know; but intentionally so. (Rhyme also intended)
