Unleashed force of the male need to protect
We seek to defend what we love
Yet we know not how to share that love

The gutter is meant for the heartless
The ruthless
The true and the vigilant
Who live life merely
To survive & continue
For the next day

Survival
Is the code
And none other

Tonight
There are no stars
There is no moon
There is only the hanging
Beating
Sun

Who burns and burns
And burns
