The world has changed
I feel it in the air.
I smell it in the earth-
waging war against

What was once clear
honor, good, is gone to a
craftsman and voices
in the face of security.

The growling, anger,
arrows fly,
swords clash,
worlds fall under
the spell of voice.

Some things
that should not be forgotten
were lost.

Somehow,
we missed all the signs.
