"Let me look Into my crystal ball" I said sarcastically With my eyes closed A ball of laundry in hand Our future could have been Beautiful, bright, treasured Like rare crystals or gems Alas, the 'leaders' are close-minded They are only open To money and power Now, to keep myself Safe and sane I have to shut myself away Form a diamond-hard shell around me I am not saying My visions of the future Is unclear and muddy; I am saying....... There is none The only window open In my hellish prison Is the one where fuel Enters to grow this inferno

The Future is Closed, Permanently
"Let me look Into my crystal ball" I said sarcastically With my eyes closed A ball of laundry in hand Our future could have been Beautiful, bright, treasured Like rare crystals or gems Alas, the 'leaders' are close-minded They are only open To money and power Now, to keep myself Safe and sane I have to shut myself away Form a diamond-hard shell around me I am not saying My visions of the future Is unclear and muddy; I am saying....... There is none The only window open In my hellish prison Is the one where fuel Enters to grow this inferno
