Ominous Days

Ominous Days

Cascading lies & Degrading intellect 
Monstrous disguise & Unfathomable neglect
Political unrest & Critical pawns
Voices oppressed & Forgotten icons

Pushing division & Ambushing independence 
Leaving indecision & Creating dependence 
Entity’s birth & Identity lost 
Social girth & Personal cost 

Lawless state & Flawless rise 
Taken bait & Forsaken cries 
Parasitical mites & Hypocritical politics Lost sight & Bagged tricks 

Power omnipotent &  soured participant
Election’s bought & votes tossed
Parties brawl & humanity’s fall...
