UNDERTOW
Hotel rooms
Seedy bars
Outside
Looking in
Teal lagoons
Shiny cars
Velocipede of sin
Gelatinous infection
Incandescent scourge
Modicum enticement
Bulwark cliffs emerge
Road warrior enchantress
Provocative excess
Hawkish illustration
Stunning scarlet dress
Intoxication nation
The dead
Lift up their glass
Gross infatuation
Tempered rude harass
Cherry nosed drunkard
Staggering alee
Stout mind blowing hooch
Prowling patiently
Fighting blindly
Tooth and nail
Whiskey fed my rant
A sot was I
Quite cowardly
Braggadocio veil
Tis He who fished my flailing arse
From drowning in the gale
Gift of life supposing
Alive to share my tale
Fading myths
Monoliths
Confession lingers on
Extraordinary
Consequence foregone
Culture ripples
Undertow
Magnetism
Softened blow
Inestimable love
Benevolence we crave
In direct proportion
Pash sadly depraved
Revelation 18:2-4 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)

2And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
