Leaders/Charlatans

Turtles have withdrawn

In their shells

Hoping the worst will

Someday end

The fish have sold

Their souls to dreams

Of heaven on earth

Charlatans claim to have seen

But the seas will rise

Winds blow high

While fire will pour

From the skies above

For the charlatans lied

Or didn’t realise

That they had opened

The gates all wide

Not for heaven

But for the hell to arrive
