The Forgotten
Who first took a stand
That started the avalanche.
All because of happenstance
Empires that arose.
Dynasties that fumbled.
Greatness arose then stumbled.
There you stand amongst the forgotten.
At the end of time's beginning.
Before the primordial springing.
The Priests and Priestesses
In bestial headdresses
The Queens and Kings long forgotten.
What hath thou begotten?
History tells tales of reckoning.
Forgotten is the slave
That dastardly Naive
Who started the political or religious wave.
As time slips away
Do you recall those from yesterday?
Memories lost along the way
Memories that fade away.
Do you stand amongst the forgotten?
Who started it all.
Crushed by the fall.
