Into the abyss I glanced, with contempt,
broken crowns lay scattered, their jewels lost
believed to be stolen by the remnants
of a passing glory
Bribes hidden on the graffiti-filled wall,
made an artist's pallette worthless
made an artist's pallette worthless
all memories of a distant future, eroded;
absconding the wrath of my final beginning
Salvo!
I hear you!
I hear you!
Your whispers at the colors of ambiguity,
tossed my mind to be sold
to the foe;
tossed my mind to be sold
to the foe;
to blend in the nauseous display
of hyperbolic reinvention.
