1. SYSTEMATIST

This system, once alive and organized has become
Tainted, degraded, irreversibly contaminated
Even if the system fails
You must adhere to the system
Even if the system fails
You must adhere to the system

This beautiful and vibrant thing, discolored
The willingness of one part to destroy the whole, incomprehensible

Nonetheless this blight is still part of the system
Inherently lacking in self-regulation
A structure that fails is still not a failure
It has succeeded in its progression of collapse
