Fifty Fallen

Cloudy audio apparitions
stalking daylight moments
Advocates of the sanity in vanity,
the depravity in anarchy.
electro choirs singing
the dismembered are chattering
their inuendos and blabberings
meaning little to nothing,
other than, to those listening
the stagnation of a nation
the flagellation of Freedom.
For her sins are too grave,
and too immoral.
Her smile is too sarcastic,
and all too real.
She knows all - omnipotence before the ignorance
of a fallen fifty stars.

I like your use of off-rhyme within the same line, it really adds to the rythm and pace. I really like the word "grave" in line 12 and how it gives weight in the traditional sense to sins, but also how it references the theme of the fallen.
