- The Madness of Men -

By Rebel tiGer King

City skies are dark and gloomy
Loyal and steady
flirting the line, so fine
between

life

and

death

So permanent the shame of power
and the madness of men
appears righteous beneath the
skirts of the pensive
of the wronged

City skies are dark and gloomy
Loyal and steady

Sheltering the brilliance of the wicked, spewing words
like dust, empty
Cluttering the greatness of the clean and natural

city skies are dark and gloomy
Loyal and steady

Natural things,
In an unnatural world.
