The Drowned
Folder:
politically based stuff etc etc
in the distance can see the oncoming storm
the waves ready to crash in yet we always need more
the sirens wail
as the foundations fail
there will be no more to harvest or to sell
waterlogged dreams transform into screams
broadcast across TVs for these designer things
safety nets cut rebranding of old smut
crusade of misinformation floods
erosion unfettered globally tethered
all life-lines have been severed
boxing up the crops
engineering the profits no matter the cost
once it starts it can never stop
the sirens wail
as the foundations fail
there will be nothing left to harvest or repel
the rising tides
drowning with pride
willfully and woefully blind
cascade of cracks all along the glass
under pressure safety traps
structures designed to protect bound to collapse
shelters washed into coffins
flooded under sentiment
no survival in the sediment
the sirens wail
the foundations have failed
there is nothing left to harvest or repel
the sirens wail
the foundations have failed
there is nothing left to harvest or repel
floating amongst the debris
amongst those who are wealthy and have nothing
lost within a flood of fading memories
soon to be forgotten then erased
the meaning to be displaced
there is no escape
the sirens wail
the foundations have failed
there is nothing left to harvest or repel
