Chapter 5: Abrasion

Grinding down, grinding down…!

Values, possessed, are grinding them down;
dreadful shackles are binding them down.
Judgment has been sentenced until death,
to be tormented by a spiteful, masked clown!

Avarice and fright are grinding them down;
black and white, binding them down.
Enticing marvels have been put on offer,
in return for some sanity, and for a frown!

Excessive brightness is grinding them down;
miracle workers are binding them down.
And now that Shadow has been put to shame,
the highway to the chasm is grinding down!
