Preordained

Know all your fears

Cause they’re all mine

Awash in tears

In due time,

Partner in crime

For you I lust

By immutable design,

Return to dust

Grind the gears

Seek the sign

Pass the years

Doing time

The walls you climb

Utterly nonplussed,

Apart from the vine,

Return to dust

Closed, dull ears

Can’t hear the sublime

The shadow steers

Towards a new paradigm

An overcast clime

Breach of trust

Soiled with grime

Return to dust

The clock will chime

Who is just?

Past your prime,

Return to dust
