Perfect apprentice

impoverished
Where the receptive reside
Beyond the lies
we shiver in time
In hopes they cannot thrive
Vote for dismissal
When asked how to play
Who knew that death
Would cancel your breath
Lying here today
Upon the strains
of
fidelity
Where inimitable blood runs cold
Condemned to the middle den
Whilst your soul is being sold
In shadows,
they speak of mastery
All who follow
shall
obey
Seeking a perfect apprentice
To imitate my way
Diving into desolation
I am weakened
by
the
king
Shelter me in this perishable form
To my soul,
I shall not bring

Very graphic language. Detailed and specific. The form of your direction and theme really captures each "moment" you're trying to share. To me, this is quite the topic to write about. Politics are definitely this dark. Thanks for sharing.

Politics are most definitely dark these days. There’s corruption everywhere.
