Mortal Divide
Melodic sweetness of golden calf,
Jagged lines, fear's not cut by half.
In Ruby fields of blood soaked bones,
Dormant souls, immutable groans.
Dust and char filled, choking air,
Stench of death, fear filled despair.
Breath gets drawn, then is held,
As sodden moisture pools meld.
Humanity's collosal rift is showing,
Betwixt calm, fear fuelled blowing.
Across billowing seas,
A duplicity of decrees.
Skulduggery edging a new saviour,
By tokenist bitter addictive flavour.
But intent that seems candied,
Twisted logic, underhanded.
