Life In The Ruins

Caliban casts out Ariel. EP
The catastrophe of history
found everywhere, everyday:
blocks of smashed houses,
broken promises, outright lies,
fallen statues, forgotten virtues,
the omnipresent detritus
of a botched civilization.
The human song falters.
Hearts reduced to embers.
Greed haunts the earth.
The Ceremony of Innocence
not drowned, but canceled.
Passionate intensity flames.
Watch your step and be wary.
It’s rough out there, friend.
Everything crumbles in the end.
