"Bygone Beauty"

A travesty of intellect

set loose ahead of minds;

freedom the gift of expression

is the martyrdom of our times.

 

Christ died for forgiveness,

as Lucifer tutored for lies;

war is waged for peace,

releasing destruction for our eyes.

 

Harmony is a myth

capriciously traveling through our lives,

Mislaying sanctity and love,

while sacrificing reality to our ties.
