Perdition

beautiful destruction

as peaceful as death

smiling in painful ending

 an heir of perdition

tipsily brawling sorrowfully

 neglecting the unmerited

longing for emptiness

clinging to futility

hanging unto a mirage

a worthless rag

then comes the end

fire crackling and flowing

voices wailing in anguish

deafening for eternity

perdition it is.
