Shall we observe these predacious creatures?
Let us seek refuge behind the wall of bones and infant skulls
erected as evidence of their sadistic praxis.
As they lead us on this measureless axis.
Alas! A host of graduates laid waste to by the mercenaries of their fathers,
laying idly on the sterile grounds of their dreams, about five miles yonder.
Their leaders stand above them, spreading their wing-like raiments,
beautifully stitched with the threads of ambitions they squander.
Now, their podiums stand in the spotlight; barren.
As their hollow minds, housing neither inspiration nor wisdom.
They pay handsomely for the services of Charon,
that he may steer us towards Lucifer’s kingdom.
These godless beings prepare to spread their wings once more,
to enshroud our minds, that we may continue to slumber and snore.
