Dance of the statuesmashers

A timer filled with human eyes and odd slime filling slowly

A lake of blood into which a pelted fish descends

Hell’s denizens nest at its edge

Those of the air swap with those of the hedge

A gloam pledges to obscure the road to the henge

Where for hope or revenge his growing followers go, led

By dead idols, with fell graven heads

Hammers, hammers, smashing the legs 

Cities falling in tempest, like tents without pegs

Each day like the last, and never the next

For holding high with pride thy head

The crueller sentence of a broker next.
