Silence of the Lambs

Tongues destroy what monasteries built, And blessings fall on those consumed with guilt. Angels visit the demon spawn , Watching whilst dusk turns to dawn. The cruellest of all hide in corporate burrows, Yet God's brow barely furrows, And so the world keeps on whirling. As Man's morals keep burning, The tide is turning. The pasture is filled with rams. The farmer takes no notice of the silence of the lambs.
