End Begins

The end begins around us. The signs are too clear to deny.

As a new millennium begins once faint hoof beats

become clearer. An impassable void's creation between overlords

and consumer drones rushes towards its completion.

The constitution's ablaze. Freakishness becomes normalcy,

the inverse of morality. Abominations praised and met with open arms.

Rome and Babylon's rise nears its final stage.

Conform, accept in silence or die in the mob's rage.

Hostility generated from

Attention's diverted away from the actual antagonists.

Afflict with sickness to

enforce their cure, synthetic peace carved out of madness.

Is the stage set for the demonic tyrant's rise? More and more

technology seems geared to divide, monitor and terrorize.

Personal freedoms surrendered. The means for self-defense given

away. Marshall law in a new empire. Caesar takes his throne.
