and so very tired of you all
all the vain pretensions of Knowledge and Wisdom

while hiding the commonplace knowledge of what has been said and done
all the violence all our own
--

it is we who are
the killers and the oppressors
of the poor

but we have done so while
keeping an "inner peace"

an "inner peace"
(or so we say)
---

blind ambition rules
who are we trying to fool?

can any body speak
for themselves

all i know is that
no one does
-----

so very tired of corpse-like images

and, of course

the death that is here
