Reckoning
Pulsating pustulated sore of a morally bankrupt nation Driven insane by the marketing tools of lust and greed Pouring forth its toxic venomous filth of hatred, lies, and intolerance upon an emotionally numb divided world Constantly opening up new markets by forcing its brand of predatory capitalism onto underdeveloped sectors Ever consuming in its relentless unquenchable thirst for consumers Spreading over the land like a deadly virus The most dangerous plaque ever known to man Leaving only destruction, violence and chaos in its wake Ravished ecosystems that have been slaughtered, tortured, and burned It has no soul it’s a monster that only lives to hunt, feed and devour more The air lingers with its stench of dead love and cold decay it stays with us and can never be washed away Deep within our minds, we know there is nothing that will forgive us now For all that we have destroyed Pointlessly, Needlessly, Shamelessly If there is any justice We know We are doom Greed and
