Like a Thief in the Night


Like a Thief in the Night

A green mist billows from his steaming chalice
imbued with envy and staggering malice
his greedy intentions devour our dreams
where a beast takes form in violent regimes.

Deceitful, deceptive, a treacherous snake
with hidden objectives that cause you to break
acquiring all power to change all the rules
chicanery unfolds while appeasing the fools.

Resources claimed by the imperial hawk
while capital bleeders immerse in their stock
corruption ensues while appeasement unfolds
enslavement to debt then begins to take hold.

Burgeoning growth, abundance, prosperity
the monster unleashes his austerity
future looks bleak for the divided nation
as the debts take hold with stinging inflation.
