It was a pleasure to burn. To see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed. We set the world alight you see For a day the world burned Sparkled glimmering charcoal Crowds of ash carried by the βwinds of changeβ For a day the world descended into chaos Not the chaos we had grown accustomed to But a new chaos A chaos that screamed: I am here Dousing the world in petrol And singing to the flames: We are here To let the voiceless tell their stories (By rewriting them in our narrative) For a day the world descended into chaos
Silence. In the catacombs beneath the noise Where the old chaos reigned A silent indifference seeping through the faded whimpers We burn to forget the suffering To remind the world that we are here That we exist amongst the chaos For a day the world burned And with it- their stories.
