Paralized society

The devil uses its formidable blade
A well crafted spire made of fear
It lurks like a giant spider
hiding in its web, waiting for the kill

It eats its bound prey with great ferocity
Leaving nothing but havoc and bones
Unprepared our heroes yield in fright
And our leaders squander precious time

Are our eyes clouded , with its spun web ?
Our bodies in stilled solidified pose ?
As immobilizing fear devours all our metal
With a rapacious lust that defies our integrity

Why did we listenen to its mighty roar?
And let it enslave us under its onslaught ?
Are we not masters of our minds
Free of this blood lusting demon

This demons mighty spire fed by our fright
Shatters in awe by courageous deeds
It has no hold on those who defy
Its mindless almost beastlike grip
