Broken Barricades

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
It was all once bright jewelsAnd glittering sandThe oceans have ravagedAnd strangled the landWaste fills the temples,Dead daughters are bornThe presses are emptyThe editors tornWhose husband was the first to fall?Who died the worst death of them all?How many splinters in each separate band?How many stations in the final hand?Now gather up sea shells,And write down brave wordsYour prayers are unanswered,Your idols absurdThe seaweed and the cobweb,Have rotted your swordYour barricades broken,Your enemies Lord.
