Watch the light leave the body through this spreading wound. the night is with us now, in us now. All future mornings rise to find our faces turned away and unknowing. The dead lie unburied. the dead lie unmourned and envied. We picked at the flesh of reason and welcomed absurdity, embraced fantasy and greed and dulled our senses. As the fires burned away we paid no mind. When the fires burned our feet we could only beg; to remain royal in a kingdom of less and less and less with each passing day.
