Patricide

The gods are damaged children, born from a greater threat.

They wallow in their dreams of patricide

And are determined to leave their apprehensions behind

Leaving no minuscule crumbs of anguished regret

Gilded bars held fast in the depths of Tartarus

These children of gods lack empathy and fear

Domination is their goal and that’s clear

Their aspirations make them so damn murderous
