Poetry

Decadence

Great civilizations lose their charm
When roses put on libertinism cast
Taking off the virtue and purity dress
Start offering their grace on the cheap
The rosy fires lure the vulnerable men
Like butterflies to the invulnerable flames.

Love becomes adultery for most-
Flutters and dances to whimsy rhymes.

Great civilizations fall apart
When morality’s dress tears up
Step by step follow the devil pace-
Obey the thirst, be in lusts chase
Satiate the lustful disgrace
YULo!!!! ” You Only Live Once”.

When decadence is under the guise of rise,
Decline, like death, will come as a surprise.
