View of a Burning City Thou

Fiery spires raised to pierce the veil of hermetic
Nourishing night. Concrete standards to proclaim the tyranny of industry's might
The heralds that announce the imminence of cancerous disease
Unending plague
Nauseous
The bodies piled high
Maggots rule and birth swarms of flies
The black cloud descends
And gold is all
And we welcome thee with open arms
With blinded eyes
Hail, our corporate overlords
Hail, self destructive greed
Hail, our burial grounds
