The Migration

by Glass noose

1.
Shards of glass, suspended Sorcery - the likes of which I've never seen Your wings will carry me Pools of apology Reflection, memory The clouds, the fog, the fallen leaves Your wings will carry me So far, so worn Every time I say there's nowhere left to go There's our home, there's our place to start anew This season will come again Goodbye is temporary Far from gone Away from all turbulence But no matter how long it might take To feel at home in a nest made from our past failures We are not defined by failure Nightfall surrounding A sense of stillness Shards of glass Your wings will carry me

End Times 07:10
Breathing dead air We are on the other side It's over No ship to steer No wrongs left to right ((Make no mistake, this was by design. This is the successful result of a system in which consideration is reserved only for wealth. This is where we get when we think we can trounce the warning signs, outmatch the error codes, pretend everything's okay because consequence is imagined. The end will always justify the means when sacrifices are made for a profit, when our worship is as green as the envy in our eyes.)) We set the alarm but the phone died A teleprompter spelt our our demise But we're here at the table Rolled up our sleeves and for what? There's no next time Each glimmer of hope, brighter than the last And we feigned blindness to prolong the charade Whispers to extinguish the candle With which we never lit the fuse No matter We found another way to burn ((And one day, you too can become so rich as to exist in a place where compassion and empathy are literally impossible. The utopia of affluenza - a disease? No, merely a marker of prosperity, an indication of the highest class, the highest caste. And yet, many of those in the lower castes are placated by this, as they have been blessed with paltry social leverage - the trivial fact that their image is the accepted default. Leverage they have extrapolated so far as to assume superiority, a fantasy constructed through a pathetic lineage from which this all was birthed. Not to say a better world is impossible, but alas - rather than aid in the development of such a place, they would prefer to idle within the delusion that one day they too can join the handful that is "the elite," as not to tarnish that very image of superiority they have been conditioned to accept as truth. So here we are - money wins, the status quo reigns, and dramatic action is needed to make change mean something other than coins.)) Led into decay By our own hands
