empire

you ignore reality

when the influence

of cause+effect

are negated

creating views

of circumstances

which obscure

truthful, intelligent observation

be it by ignorance,

arrogance or neglect,

it is your choice, not ours

which has brought us here

to the precipice of disaster

the war gods dues, a human sacrifice

you must really believe us fools

or is it all just a clever ruse

to procure sanction for far worse dirty tricks, in effort to boldly, unapologetically loot the treasury for the profit of the few

while we the many continue

to suffer losses

in every aspect of our lives

all in the interest

of expanding the legacy

of your empire
