Plastic Explosive Iraqi-Man (Free verse) by Enkidu

The day after the end of the casteless world A maskless god touched vanity as it lie But despite the pleading grace of anonymity We perished The golden sands of earth burned away to fire Glass borders unveiled a machine-gun eulogy Echoes ringing through the stoney chapels Or tombs A papered cleric invited the moon to pray Line by line space divided time; a statue Ran away wind and bastardized creation Broken

Sorry, castless should be cast-e-less.
But the current meaning could be interpreted as if the world was devoid of people, or its "cast."
