*This is done in the form of a Lai Nouveau - a little f*cker of a poem that actually made me think, rethink and rewrite this a few times. Hopefully it's worth it!*
The Decay of Mankind:
Rat-tat-tapping sound Darkness dripping round Death dies Reaper scratching ground Fearsome and profound God lies Warring men confound Desperation bound.
Falsely common ground Bombshells all around Man sighs Whore born greedy hound Vanity astound Blood flies Darkness dripping round Rat-tat-tapping sound.
Shivers Poe, shivers. :) Excellent job here. I hope to see more Lai Nouveaus from you dear. :D

Get some sleep, some dreams, and combat the tricky form that is the Lai Nouveau. :)
