Destructive "Advancement"

Metallic sounds of sliding gates

Open maws ready with profitable hate

The huntress within me baring teeth and claws

Is ready to spear predators without any pawse


Backed into corners, this wilderbeast

Is ready to fight, fuck, and feast

Warriors of shadow and light

Show up in tidal waves to fight for our lives


Water, elusive and mysterious

Conforming and shapeless

Knows only temporary bounds

There is no escape from power in numbers


There's no way to extinguish 

Our unstoppable flames

The most powerful retardants 

Are deployed in vain 


The paradox of destructive advancement continues on

Capturing the hearts of cult followings

A twisted and dying art


Parting trees with vicious machines

Clipping flowers to arrange them into pricey bouquets

There must be a way to stop the madness

Masquerading as sanity
