Sitting, watching

Suffering

Closure

Cause and effect

Didn't have to convince anyone

As they did all the heavy lifting themselves

Sitting, watching

Suffering the closure of the

Cause and effect

It isn't some random profound tragedy

Or a bad dice roll

It's the exact mathematically predictable R.O.I

Return On Investment

They foresaw and planned for

For decades of abuse and harassment

In an absolute refusal to catch up with times and reality

Sitting, watching

Suffering the closure of the

Cause and effect

By not taking accountability

By denying the actions and manipulating the innocent

They successfully engineered their own

Obsolescence

Sitting, watching

Suffering the closure of the

Cause and effect

Burn every bridge you cross

Eventually

You run out of land

Sitting, watching

Suffering the closure of the

Cause and effect
