Time of Axis

 
 
Have you ever seen such an enigmatic crossroad?  
 
Seemingly unrelated factors approaching with the moxy of bullet trains  
 
The evolution of technology bursting like a ripe fruit and nearing speeds of free fall  
 
Social conscience and consciousness unifying in circle of fluid communication  
 
Outdated institutions applying a staunch death grip as a Gargoyle peering from a ruin decrepit  
 
It becomes harder and harder for the executioner to keep the veil forced tightly upon visage  
 
The truth searches to find the weakness of its container  
 
The earth continues spinning  
 
Containing within enough nuclear energy to suffice the ceremony of her own destruction  
 
Peace and freedom from poverty and hunger are becoming ever more plausible  
 
Though the Warmongers bite down as hard as ever  
 
Sharp teeth to human bone  
 
We will see if these factors dissolve in waters of compromise and hard work  
 
Or if opposing momentum will be resolved  

In the force of an explosion
