By Every Hand Betrayed |
Through a boggy haven was cut a swath three miles long. |
Into it you dumped tar and concrete, hate and fear. |
Standing so tall, even Death would tremble to take you. |
Running shoulder to shoulder with lions and wolves. |
But you’re nothing. |
A pack of liars. |
Fakers. |
Cowards. |
Trapped now forever in this ghost town. |
Shambling spectres haunting these streets. |
Boundaries not set by concrete and bars--boundaries are set by neighborhoods |
and bars. |
You are paralyzed by apathy and cloaked in jaded elitism. |
Your wasted potential surrounds me, binds me, suffocates me. |
I yearn to retreat from your fortresses of bloated excess. |
My ears fall deaf to your stammering quips and shrill complaints. |
We stand eternal on the cusp of something great destined to always fall short. |
Decimation may be our only saving grace. |
Or will we stand eternal? |
