Arc of Failure (Law of Nature, Pt. 2) - A Storm Of Light

Is it not obvious that someone, who customarily

Lives in a state of suffering, requires a different sort Of religion?

From a person habitually living in a state of well-being?

The acts of men, carried over from past centuries

Will gradually destroy them.

Man as pariah, piranha, a parasite

An all-consuming ravenous beast

Who devours every other creature,

Wreaking havoc upon a female planet

Who bears the scars of his insatiable hunger

Her body pitted by deep wounds gauged into her flesh

As he leeches her natural elements

To power his infernal machines.

Machines which spew black bile

Poisoning everything

As man gluts on the Earths' sacred fluids and precious Minerals

Until Nature herself stages a hostile insurrection

Against mans' gluttony and greed.

I felt that my existence here

Was becoming a distorted, twilight memory
