Whittler Of Fortune

A situation that's easily corrected
 But rarely thought of in advance
 All the technology ever dreamt of
 But here there is no light
 Hands up, here's the guns
 Where there is manslaughter
 There are also friends gather in the murk
 Sparse light has no appeal
 The overbearing darkness
 Would seem appropriate
 But does not our filth hide
 Faceless unimaginable keeper
 Red notes upon the doors
 An enigmatic whittler of fortune
 Exhausted by our prayersA situation that's easily corrected
