As Rome Burns

All this time behind closed doors Nothing new to see Just all of those things No one wants to look at

Sat in stasis Sharing distraction upon distraction Shaping our flat plains of existence Into swept-under-the-carpet mountain ranges

Hiding away from the consequences Of our oxymoronic “civilization” The puppeteers of our individual shadow plays Scripted by the fires of our desires

As Rome burns
