Something Wicked this Way Comes (my rendition)

When diamonds dance on oceans waves
Sinks to the bottom of Poseidon's caves.
When push and pull are too strong to bear
and all who see turn to despair.
 
A shimmer of hope once appeared
on an ethereal face, it did glare.
Unbeknownst to all but true.
beneath the sweet is putrid glue.
 
With commanding grace and words,
that spread like fire.
All coward down  
To its desire.
 
Claws and teeth were exposed.
Slashing through designer clothes.
Tears and wails floated on the wind.
As it echoes and chimes, it did grin.
 
Not deserving of its call.
Cities and nations all did fall.
What can we do?
What can be done?
Something Wicked This Way Comes
