Shining City on a Hill
Your time is now over.
Your death will be slow,
and cruel.
A vulture picks
at the corpse of a fool.
When greed is worshipped,
all compassion fails.
Dogs eat dogs
and chase their own tails.
No one reads books.
No one understands law.
Might becomes right
and all succumb to their deepest flaw.
**** is entertainment,
and fantasy, addiction.
Degradation is beauty,
and cruelty, conviction.
The sun is now setting
on the city dying
Darkness begins
under a red moon rising
I'm glad to be old.
