What's rage?
Rampage on a stage
Called the world
Never really known, constantly unfurled
CLOSE THEIR EYES
IT BURNS THROUGH YOUR DISGUISE
BUT TO THEIR SURPRISE
THEY'RE THE REASON YOU SERIALIZE
Step back.
No time to crack
Daily times, it may rise
Commonplace human demise
Guide your struggles, create not destroy

What's joy?
Something earned playing with toys?
Gathering a solid grade
For academics is your trade
All of these gaps
Happiness is a time-lapse
Everyone digs for its remaining wraps
Can't think of a time where it didn't collapse...
But that's alright.
It is no blight
Merely a runaway
For in due time, we'll meet halfway
It never remains, so why should we feel betrayed?

Stuck up like a tree
Fall down as burnt lumber
When someone reaches final slumber
It'll be represented by a number.

Why must I feel
Like an alien on a distant planet
One and the same
To you.
To me, the difference is night and day
Rise up for the morning
As I weep for twilight.

Humanity has lost its humanity
Chandy Apr 2020
Peel back the flesh
Smash through the bones
Of enemies misunderstood
Merely
Piece of firewood
Tossed to the pile
Sicker than bile
Such a juvenile...
How did this come together?
No questions asked
Do what
I thought was good
Now it's not
Reduced to an ocelot
Cater
Toward the mass extinction
So many more
Go off to die
Mementos
Turn to memories
Remove this career
From around my neck
Diplomats reveal flaws...
...yet I extinguish them
But are these flaws
To the universe?

Where does it lie?
The answer
How does anyone...
...save the world from the end?
