DELUSIONS OF MAN

Oh man, what a wretched being you are,

Driven by hunger, consumed by desire.

Filled with hate,

An ever-burning thirst for power.

Fearful of what you cannot understand,

Chained to the need for constant importance.

Bound by the weight of hollow traditions,

Ruling the simple, oppressing the lesser.

How far you have fallen from realms unmatched,

Once held in esteem no being dared challenge.

Now left to wallow in sorrow and defeat.
