Some wage wars in pregnant deceit

Some wage wars in pregnant deceit

The drum rolls preceded the fight
sound of thunder within the night
fireworks infusing the dark light
ignition of dome that caves in

Two allies join in Middle Earth
ravaging lands unto the firth
seeking to establish new hearth
perhaps but violence is heard

Kill for kill is set on repeat
Some wage wars in pregnant deceit
neither faction accepts defeat
eye for eye and we all are blind

Alliances lead to new norms
society acquires other forms
new stances of people in swarms
freedom pierces through the black veils
