Still Heard Squawking

In the shadows they are
Seeking to use a fading power ignored.
They 'assume' they are not seen.
They are...
But no one cares any longer!
It is known they operate from behind the scenes.
And in times like these...
Their influence has diminished!
They are finished,
And yet...
They can be still heard squawking.
