Arrow of Rage

The atramentous maneuverings of many things presage
What errors of men will bend the arrow of rage.
The equanimity of nature dethroned and displaced
Finds unlikely characters playing the race.
Mantras of contrivance and stealth
Mark their conspiracy and wealth.
What method to this madness precludes a greater guilt?
Or memoried monument to evil built?
Duplicity in malevolence, they argue is right.
Clandestine canopy of night makes might!
