Brazen Bull of Phalaris |
Forged of bronze a brazen bull |
A tool of death |
Never a sculpture cast so cruel |
It’s smoke incense |
A toast to its lust for human fuel |
Burned from within with no clemency |
Condemned to death |
It’s own maker perished within thee |
The test locked in |
From the depths of misanthropy |
Scorched bones shone like jewels |
Morbid bracelets |
Made into amulets sold to fools |
The screams the ox |
Ghastly sounds surge from the bull |
The pain the howls the pipes of the bull |
The cruel despot of Zeus |
Power unleashed tyrants retribution |
The screams, the tenderest, most |
Pathetic, most melodious of bellowings |
Disgust of man’s cancer of worlds |
Invent our ruin |
Destroyer of worlds |
In the guise of invention |
Racing to self-destruction |
Explained away by intention |
