Progress

There were the dark ages

then the Renaissance

enlightenment only an illusion

darkness from sages

as science gave its responce

mistrust\'s blindness a new delusion

 

Mechanical magic stole the show

truth sold for comfort held dear

misdirection to violence and fears

a cloud of deception did grow

now only a thin veneer

a blanket of false liberty appears

 

A hope for immortality

was the spark

to put death in chains

technology fed flames of vitality

leaving its mark

now only ashe remains
