Analysis of Depravity's Eye
Depravity’s eye,
looking at you
Depravity’s eye,
piercing straight through
Depravity’s eye,
asking for more
Depravity’s eye,
destiny’s whore
Depravity’s eye,
calls deeply within
Depravity’s eye,
the wage of all sin
Depravity’s eye,
a price you must pay
Depravity’s eye,
—for all that you say
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2017)
