Question your idols,
Their past and your future.
Don't be afraid of being wrong, rude
or
Even right.
That "pie in the face" taste
Can be humble,
in my opinion.
Face your mistakes and take stock.
Be like water,
not like rock.
Be like you and not like them,
When an identity can not bend
It will snap
Back to default defense.
"Agree to disagree."
"It's just how I feel."
Let down these shields to reveal
If the ideals you hold so dearly are real.
See, you ask but rarely listen.
Fingers in ears, lest the truth trickle in.
Signalling virtue by idicting false sin.
Clawing for the higher ground,
Hoping all those
around you
drown,
To mute the sound
Of opposition.
Yet still,
YOU cry victim.
It seems to me that
Confirmation of your own righteousness
Is all the evidence
You need.
Self-destruction is ****
Bleeding hearts, bleed to death.
And even with your last breath
You refuse to confess
your hypocrisy.

Dreams turn to falling rubble,
I'm awake!
Eyes wide, fight or flight?
Frozen instead.
Bright white flickers... FLASH!
Relieved... a live show at last!
Dawn glow follows and
I remember your words.
And how you have no new words... now.
So I tap the glass, in memory of you.
