facepaint vendor pharmaceutical

By Future of Despond

the World is Alive Again
swarming with the Past
Magic potions everywhere
poultice concotions at the altar
demi-Gods on murals
choke out the walls
celestial indication
is integral news
Ignorance is King
village gossips
fill their faces with Iron
and monks with sandals
are everywhere
Twisted clothing ceremonial
like the sexual whore of babylon
wars in assyria
doused in Violence
to idolize rape
and devour all the insects
of reality

for The Man
has realized
our average intellect
is most comfortable
in tribal savagery.

Very cool write, Poet. I liked "devour all the insects of reality" - I definitely feel like reality is composed entirely of bugs sometimes. The last stanza sums it up perfectly - like a strong essay in poetry form.
