Usurpation
Man against man, weapon against weapon.
Wanton destruction, agonising shrieks of humanity
Drowned in the depths of depravity but lost in a frenzy of rage.
A self-perpetuating vicious cycle of extinction, resurrection, peace and plunder
Whistling vassals of hell streaking through the blue skies
Sounds of impartial vengeance sparing neither young nor old, fit nor infirm
Rubbles of ephemeral dust the only vestige of man’s futile progress
Every dying breath a rude awakening
