The Circle, The Dawning of the Dark Age
Yesterday I dreamt I saw,
an enormous room, without a door,
and a million people trapped within,
paying with their lives for a horrible sin.
***
The ceiling was black, the walls were red,
The people inside had a feeling of dread.
So in their subterranean life giving tomb,
they sat and watched and waited their doom.
***
The dim lights flickered off and on,
No-one knew what was going on.
A blue grey mist moved across the room
They knew that something would happen soon.
***
And then I saw appear, a door,
and on it was written one word WAR.
Those convicts wanted to find a new life,
away from sorrow, hardship and strife.
