Kleptocracy

Parsimony whines in the waking dusk

As heedless she scourges society

Painting nature's aroma by a musk

Garnering exclusive notoriety


Phalanges caress the waking dusk

Mauling the ****** of society

Be it not a wicked display of lust

Quiescent there lies sobriety


Embezzlement coos in the waking dusk

Mazumah heightening anxiety

In fine bones carved are faces of disgust

Identifying yearning deities


Shunned remains the populace's trust

As upon avarice kleptocrats rust
