FADING LIGHT

Promoters of the end times.
No conspiracy for mundane power,
but intricately weaving out
underpinnings to prophecies.
Let violence and despair ravage planet Earth,
that those who cynically twist evil and good
may transport to their Heaven,
miraculously escaping payment for
horror and destruction
they have wrought.
Annihilation for their own elevation.

Sorrow, numbing ice, inconsolable
pain too profound to acknowledge.
Vultures circle, maggots feast.
Jovial parasites
imbibe sacrificial delight,
leer, sneer, snarl, slavering.
Whores so eager for noble
favor
fatten themselves for slaughter.
