Blood and Gold

Riches dripped in scarlet
Consume the bitter mind
Greed that once was cast out
Has now redeemed Its time

Land stretches for miles
Filled with glittering lust
But the high cost of attainment
Is more than doubt can trust

Sweet wealth is what is treasured
Yet with it comes the price
Of salty wounds and fury
More than what is enticed

Insanity pleas a bargain
A soul exchanged for coins of old
'Tis a world of dark disorder
In a land of blood and gold
