The Dinner

Glimpses flickering rashly, hidden amongst her rational speech.  

Oblivious, the guests dine nonchalantly.

Cigarettes perched on cue,

Dispersing carbon monoxide at the persecutors request.

There is no intrinsic link between wealth and morality.

Government officials, lawyers, and CEO’s all abandon principle when the world falls asleep.

They conquer adulterous liaisons like savaging beasts, without remorse.

Liquor fuels them, aggressively, they unify as one: a disgraced party.

The bands hold no symbolism, purely decorative, there is no marriage here.

The chandelier sways, morality begs for it to fall, to destroy the evening.

The devil announces: ‘everybody becomes an engineer when lust reaches overdrive.’

its good shows your frustration and anger only thing i would think bout changing is the part about liquor and that more has to do with me personally belief that power corrupts ect so i would have gone with power or greed 7 deadly sins vs 1 marriage vow obviously not a fair fight
