Cornerstones

Full moon shining down upon me
lighting up the sky above
Romance all around to see
and I drown myself in love

As long as there is someone there
to bring to me the breath of life
Just be carefull and be aware
of those who might twist the knife

The ones who base their own success
on the bodies they have left behind
Mutilated  and a senseless mess
left out for someone else to find

So the guilty may claim innocence
of this horrendous crime
expounding upon their ignorance
and blaming all others in time

So question all you see or hear
Due diligence is key
Keep the ones you trust most near
with fealty and honesty the fee

Don't let the guilty just walk away
but hold them to full account
Denounce them then make them pay
a horrendously large amount

Their money is the cornerstone
of the empire they construct
upon a weak foundation prone
to crumble and self destruct

When this empire falls into disrepair
bring in dynomite and a wrecking ball
Don't  even bother to despair 
for invitably it was made to fall

When it falls sweep it aside
and put in a new foundation
with a cornerstone you need not hide
but celebrate in its creation

So learn from history and don't make
the same mistakes over and again
Share the knowledge that you may take
and expound upon successes of other men
