Dead Sanctuary
Where we all belonged
This poem makes up the lyrics of a new song by Celtic Brother:
Talking heads spewing propaganda like religious chants from screens.

No more mom-and-pops; no more kid-filled merry-go-rounds, only the homeless, oldsters, and loners sitting on benches watching construction workers tearing down sections of this temple…
