Destroying Upwards

I pity all those who worship these tombs,
these cages of beasts.
They are a trap, built from death and disguised.
No one is fooled.  Some simple choose not to see.
I cannot love these reapers of beauty.
Not when they are forced upon me.
Continue to burn down creation
and don't be surprised when soon
there's nothing left to burn since ourselves

I like the way you use words in this one.  The typo in your first line detracts from the power of it, but I know how typos can fool you.

Whoops...thanks for catching that.  I didn't even notice.  I'll make sure that's fixed now
