Who are we if not the purveyors of justice my rifle, my knife, these limbs. Who are they if not the intruders of peace; their terror, our lives, death looms. I am hollowed: rebuilt and refilled. My scarred face remembers what I need not. Their faces and fear lie killed; ****** with mandate, bullet hole signature.        The trigger finger -                             is not mine, it’s yours. You **** guerrilla forces, burn villages and conquer; linger and pause. Teach them what you had us learn, cut them from their cage, and coax them to our ways. They, purveyors of peace; you, intruder, enforcing justice.

Pawn To King
Who are we if not the purveyors of justice my rifle, my knife, these limbs. Who are they if not the intruders of peace; their terror, our lives, death looms. I am hollowed: rebuilt and refilled. My scarred face remembers what I need not. Their faces and fear lie killed; ****** with mandate, bullet hole signature.        The trigger finger -                             is not mine, it’s yours. You **** guerrilla forces, burn villages and conquer; linger and pause. Teach them what you had us learn, cut them from their cage, and coax them to our ways. They, purveyors of peace; you, intruder, enforcing justice.
