We Are Cursed |
The wretched and the desperate |
Scavenge amongst the refuse |
Piled waist deep in the streets |
Of our ancient cities |
The starving compete with rats over every scrap |
Of ill sustenance to be found |
Rotting amongst the dead and diseased |
Maggot infested, disowned bodies of men and animals |
The waters we drink |
Are as sewage filth spreading sickness |
The disinherited and the poor |
Profane our temples |
With the stench of their disease and death |
Our existence has become loathsome |
The gods have forsaken us |
We have been cursed |
All is covered in dust and soot |
Ashes from fires burning |
The unwholesome corpses of the afflicted |
Our monuments have fallen to ruin |
The images of the gods buried in sand |
Our temples lay broken and prostrate in neglect |
The grandeur of the Pharaohs is subverted |
Our empire fades before our eyes |
The black earth lays barren and desolate |
I look upon the crumbling pyramids and despair |
We are cursed |
