The Unseen Shadow Lords of Balfazaar

 


Soulless husks

Narcissistic and pessimistic 


They stalk the living

The mindless parasitic critics


The political envoys

Of Father Darkness


Slave drivers

Bringing in new and old decrees


From The Book of Revelations


Hidden in the stillness

And fluctuating vibrations


Of secret arenas


In the Underground Streams


Of Kal 'Ku' Sula


The indentured puppets 

Seduced by the trumpet calls


For power and wealth 


By The Unseen

Shadow Lords


Of Balfazaar

Would you sell your soul for money and power?


To be a rich slave?


From politics to music, the puppets are everywhere.
