inheritance
darkness
and
a bottomless pit
a vortex
of violent despair
where screams echo
endlessly in chaos
of voices speaking
words and whispers
a deafening roar
(when no one listens
no one understands
the cry in the wilderness)
the cities
built on bones
a shaky foundation
a monument of folly
to mankind
an inheritance
of shadows
from ungodly men
in an ungodly world
they are blind
leaders
of the blind
when the blind
lead the blind
all will fall
into the ditch
