An Ill-Fated Wonder

A work sublime
Success was so complete
The flock of grime
Became the drover

Wrapped in a ray
The masses on retreat
We fade to gray
The story’s over

Hope and pray
Long the day
That your lie turns asunder
Pure dismay
Gone astray
From this ill-fated wonder

A spreading daze
The black hole knocks my door
Trapped in a maze
I dive in terror

Can’t stay afloat
They pull away the shore
I rocked their boat
My biggest error

We gaze the destruction
And wait for a dawn
That will never make it

We fade to gray
