Citizen |
Citizen! |
Whence came your voice |
Your right to speak? |
Is there a purpose to your tongue |
And gnawing teeth? |
I ask thee; |
How deep and hollow |
Is your mouth? |
What lie is too decayed |
For you to stomach? |
With humility and obedience |
You pride yourself |
Evasive and lukewarm |
Until the end |
Citizen! |
The interdependent morality |
Of your collective |
Made too soft the bed |
In which you lie |
I ask thee; |
Do you acknowledge |
Your own fragility |
When you sleep |
To server the «Great Good»? |
United in fear |
Lives «hard to bear» |
Illusions that «we are all peers» |
I preach not for understanding |
In you I have no faith |
I spit at you my truth; |
That you are the burden of my heritage |
For herein lies the irony |
There is neither room |
Nor air |
For the wakeful fire |
In your precious world |
Of equality |
Citizen! |
You are truly faithful |
To tradition |
When you crucify |
Those whose voices burn |
Alas |
A hundred years from now |
You recite and corrupt |
Their epitaphs |
To crucify another |
