Desistance

So is this what we’ve come to?

No turning back we’ve signed in ink and blood

You are a failed experiment

The product of vital lessons forever neglected (and forgotten)

Now as you receive this witness

The terminal stage of human history

The final hour of the hottest day approaches

The tainted water on the shore licks at the heels of their great city

The earth begins to rumble beneath

Clouds part to reveal a carmine sky

The fires of the ego machine are spreading outward

The old inherent greed within is spreading outward

The alpha collective has caved in on itself

The alpha collective no longer spreading

Now that were brought to our knees

We crawl at the mercy of

Our own terrifying nature

We spelled our end in blood

Burn in blood we lie

Deceived by our design

The earth she crumbles in our wake

We pay the ultimate price

It’s far too cold for nostalgia

To ever awaken now

So please let me sleep with all

My warmest memories

Above me the dust blots out the Moon

Below me the place of my birth lies in ruin

We may have met our end

So let the memory live in these words

We were a failed experiment

Concealing our fear till the bitter end

Though there will be none to receive this

Here is our last apology
