The die was cast
We’d live a time
But could not last,
In this world stead
We’d pushed so fast
For life ahead,
That might’ve been
What so misled,
We’d end beyond
The too far past,
To fix the wrongs
Of what we’d left,
Thus so chose blind
And visionless,
To what man blurred,
As legacy of cries unheard,
For that of a dead grey world!
ode to man’s final legacy
