The world groans

In its agony.

For decadence

Pollutes its people.

Darkness enriches itself

As light is snuffed out,

Everywhere retreating,

Disappearing.

The art of butchery

Is highly honed

As war spreads

Its tendrils

Across the globe.

Terrorizing the weak,

Emboldening the strong.

Suffering has become

The norm which

Life is based upon.
