Industrial Revolution
The Curious steps/
I take in small bounds/
The midnight hounds howling high/
Their darkened voices reaching the sky/
I walk along this unfamiliar path/
In the river Styx I take my bath/
Weakness has never derived from me/
I stare out into the bleak city/
The industrialists, the horse of Trojan lore/
They've turned my city into fallen lore, nothing but conquistadors/
The smoke and ash fills my lungs, it seems my final time has come./
Why, must I die so young? I thought I was invinsible, I should have held my tounge/
I'm only nine, but due to this revolution, i'm out of time.
