Paper castles

Drunk on a splash of power, 
The puppeteers will play, 
Petting their grand delusions, 
Dreaming they can stay.

Yet Time is undefeated.
Just ask a pile of bones.
There is no redemption
For a cabal of callous clones.

So build your paper castles.
Pretend they're made of stone.
The shifting sand will swallow.
The Reaper works alone.
