The beasts of 2016
How?
How
How
How
How
How did we get here?
I see the monsters in these men
see their hate
and their fear
Where did they come from?
demons don't just slither up shower drains
these arn't beasts of hell
they hail from the swamps
and the small towns
The old kingdoms that fell
Abandoned and forgotten
They know the taste
of the dirt floor
of dank, desperate hopelessness
and they want more?
Satan smiles
and shakes his head
but he doesn't smile with joy
he smiles with dread
"Poor fools"
he wails
"they're better off dead!"
Divine intervention?
It must be.
The blood seeps through the walls
riots in the streets
but still heaven calls
It's time
another flood?
The second coming?
Time's running out
Surely there's something
