City halls,
They've only given us shopping malls
And drones to troll our screams,
Glassy eyes stuck in an abyss of dreams.
Stray beasts,
Nurtured by this earthen feast
Scavengers hovering over what to give,
Living amongst life but fated not to live.
Dark clouds,
Hung over heads, that's allowed?
Polluted raids sweep through all in all,
Dead bray for the everlasting spring-fall.
Barren lands,
Croaks and greets the newcomer sand
Deserted desserts, mismatched,
Parentless, this dull grassy patch.
Watering holes,
Dried up, extinct like the moles
Oasis is the retelling of a fairy tale
H2O, the new form of bribe and blackmail.
Playgrounds,
Ain't kidding anymore, alcoholic lounge!
That's what's left of all, sport's a fuss
Children rendered childless by us.
