Babylon Fallen

standing on the edge,

if you listen hard,

you can hear the last dying gasps,

of dreams gone bad;

betrayed by their lusts,

abandoned by their principles,

strangled by their self-righteousness,

drowning in their hypocrisy;

destroyed by their greed;

shaking with fear, burned out shells,

well-preserved corpses, waiting to collapse,

into the beckoning grave of their

man-made utopia, trapped within the walls

of their self-made wisdom;

Babylon fallen.
