Primordial manipulation plagued his childhood
Slave to a dogmatic religion
He just ignored his soul
Based his existence on the present
The future will never come
Somnambulent as he lived out his days
Constructing a stronghold of intricate lies
The inner wall was impenetrable
The tentacles of hyper-greed infect his shallow mind
Here lies the king of the insects
Our most self-indulgent specimen has died
A trail of shattered lives were justified to feed his sprawling ego
The thought of broader consequences, ignored until his dying days
The idea seemed improbable in its simplicity
Doomsday schematics that shape the plutocracy
The most aggressive predatory instincts
Will reap the spoils of exploitation
Popular consumerism unquestioned
Such a destructive mentality out of control
Even the king of the insects still dies
