Glit and Glee

Prompt: "tomorrows are filled with glit and glee"

I layer sand to the skies
and chatter bowls with lies
they tell young ones that don't agree
that tomorrows are filled with glit and glee.

Watch me round the skeptics in rows,
their lies are made from scarecrows,
and when I burn their ranks today,
I will teach you not to fib with hay.

See, ransoms are sought in gold,
and I see no reason to be old
in calling our seasons so grown
that we may not steal a loan.

'Tis the emblem of rich lands
to ride to horizons behind sands,
and the point isn't whether you agree
that tomorrows are filled with glit and glee.
