They came they promised
even the heavens marvelled
as smiles came to all.
They are here
their promises
even hell could not imagine.
Sorrow deepens with the morrow
laughter is on slaughter
pain is mouthed as gain.
They blame all
yet the ants tend theirs
still the sun remains.
They sip exotic nectars
the trodden drink puddles of stench
the earth is puzzled.
Dreams cease
vision is no more
and hope is lost. |
