time of ignorance
you are the great
fearful age quickly
dawning upon us

those without thought
lead into battle by the
hazy-eyed extremist
conquer the innocent
and protect the most
guilty

this is a poem about
my anger with the
world

have your opinions,
your views, your ideas,
whatever but make
sure they’re thoughts

we cannot submit
to the men who
expect us to be
animals

we are what we dream we are
and nothing more

I am terrified
of this new age

where the deaf are king
and the blind are people

time of ignorance
what hope can I
have as you hurtle
towards me like
a meteor in the
night sky
