A strong belief in war's nobility
The detritus of war obliterates.
Conversion's version of reality
Puts pox-apostasy on human fates.

This incredulity in modern man
Demands a disambiguation creed,
Rejecting Darwin's degradated plan
Adherents blindly swear they bleed to need.

A glory-glitch in cat-scanned brains is lit
As cluttered gutter self-love moves aside
And man is found profoundly now unfit

To claim his crown of darkly tarnished pride.

Bombastic bones of bitterness still sing
A zealot's sick and twisted tale of grace,
Where incoherency is right-wing bling
All broken-token ditto-heads embrace.
