Chaos



Charred bodies,
psyopfied minds,
daily deaths that
have lost their meanings,
empty lives with no rhyme
or reason.

The god of Chaos
watches over us
with a humorous gaze,
for this is the era of Chaos.

Chaos feeds our delusions,
feasts on our illusions,
nurturing and nursing
from its roots
eternal disputes
that begin
with a sigh.

The millions will die
over a hostile look.

This era of Chaos
has us in its grip,
determined to destroy
all within its reach.
