Badge - a Poem

A night like any other night
A day like any other day
Trudge along the spiteful blight
Dimming the golden ray

Of hopes and dreams
Simmer under the scorching sun
While the sliced moon beams
Over the trembling swan

As the birds and the bees
Fly away from the raging fire
Engulfing flowers and trees
In desiccated dire

Premonitions of a day
When badge wearing humans
Dissipated into bashing gray
Ash, everlasting doldrums!

All the anger and hatred
Thrown at the dehumanized souls
Becalmed at last in kindred
Spirits of acquiesced ghouls
