The Rot of the Republic
Listen up, 'cause I'm about to spit some truth
About a disease that's eating our society from the root

Instead heed what is good,
Against what’s wrong, in the end bereavement,
For those who failed to stood.

Watch with sure gaze discards that tell;

Beneath the sea of glistening stars,
Between the ethereal evening air,
Lies a forest of glowing dreams,
But as diverse and rich as they are,
None escape the same Moonbeam.

While shuffling through the papers on my desk.

Fate laughs and spins the roulette wheel

I've felt it from the start.
