Cornerstone

You see no bodies
Only steps
Upon which 
You can ascend the heights

They are the people 
You sacrificed 
On the altar 
Of your vain ambition.

You continue to build 
Your monumental disaster
A towering Babel 
For your own renown.

Dead people 
Turn back to dust
And with that
The whole thing crumbles

As you leave the ruins behind 
Be careful not to stumble over
The Cornerstone.
