50 Fallen Stars

50 Fallen Stars There's a plague of insanity among us Is it blind ignorance or just the blatantly ignorant? A whole new land of despair and those with golden bars shall survive. Hitler too was a citizen- Also illicitly placed into power by officials Did they think they could control the beast? "History repeats itself," ringing in my ears War coming in different measures, like none before The crucifixion will be great, so pray on your decades Momentous poverty lay upon us at best The sheer terror that unfolds leaves me with tremors, while the tears that subject my face have the constitution of molten lava. Debauchery is woven into our once bold- prideful colors that our ancestors Repeatedly bleed for. Erroneous is now the clad silken thread Unwoven- with an apocalyptic surprise. All I see is red, what happened to the blue and white? Generations lost The disadvantage will suffer from a lack of capital!!! Women back on kitchen tables Buildings once bubbling with life, the clatter of happy children playing will now crumble like dried stale bread I'm nausea with fear for our elderly, those that cared for us- now left similar to molded foliage on an abandoned street. Disabled? Minority? - quenched! Striving for survival! WAKE UP! Take off your rose colored glasses! Stop falling for the ruse and the propaganda- Insulting your own intelligence! You already disrespected mine- I'd rather be fed to a rabid animal then slowly suffocated by a herd of elephants Are you prepared for sacrifice? Tearing gold from people's teeth- So others can lavishly bathe in oil Retrogressing all that has been fought. The earth- blood red, from the wounds of the masses Neanderthals adorning $1,000 suits! Whom you pay homage to as if it's an honor of the divine Emerge!!! I sorrowfully hope it's not too late
