Everywhere, anywhere
There is one thought bringing the rest of us down
Our leader knows nothing
Of what we need
To be a blissful nation
All across the globe
There is the lack of love
War
Hatred, blood and death
Darkness brews in the air
Let us now sing
Our dirge for the world
edit: I know I’m a bit slow, but the title of this…er…poem just hit me. The pretentiousness of it nearly made me laugh out loud–were my wife and I not quoting Monty Python at the time. "Ni!" But I digress. We no longer have stale, cliched goth wankery–oh NO. We have pretentious, stale, cliched goth wankery.
Then again, my stale goth wankery hasn’t been published like some others’, so I’m not sure if I’m breaking some stale goth wanker-law by commenting.
