Shining Gods of Poisoned Seas

Shining Gods Of Poisoned Seas How utterly useless are the sincere Pleas to the shining Gods of poisoned seas Words sent forth on a great ray of Hope find blank images in an empty scope Longings so in tune to vanities of Man greed and lusts in each wishful plan Dark desires in each and every Request selfish wants for only the very best How vain are man's deepest dark Desires evil wrapped in armor in raging fires Deeds hidden from the scourging of Light oft carried out by messengers at night Evil that lingers as it eats the Host preparing the victim for coming roast Tortured cries that will only this Seal sad food for a famished beast's meal How utterly useless are the sincere Pleas to the shining Gods of poisoned seas!
