The Buzzard has replaced the Eagle
Old and penurious are penned in denuded pastures
Pennies are placed on the eyes of dying children
Ivory towers morph into Gilded Enclaves
Justice becomes a lexiconical anachronism
Money, death, pirouette upon golden plateaus
The rattlesnake and scorpion drink the blood of roses
And love is incarcerated…for loitering
