Painted village

Painted faces of the victims.
A people in captivity.
A port once used to transport slaves.
Now a bastion for bondage.
The past is never confronted, baal laughs!
Their atrocities never exposed never questioned.
Wrath in a thick pungent paste.
Black cities, dark landlords.
Masterminds of illusion,addicted to dominating the simple folk.
Strings of ridiculous clicks clinging to the social strata.
Subjected to the whims of meglomaniac minds that are growing darker.
Painted wills, assimilated in a metropolis governed by the heartless.
