I’d cut you out Toss you to the starving wolves Let them pick apart your lumbering mass But even under your mask You’re insignificant at best.
Leave you to your own Let you fester despite your growth Because no matter what you do, In eyes that stare back at you In all that you stir and stew With propaganda songs, And protesting vigils; Assembly halls full of sycophants. When the lights go out, You’re all alone.
No you see the truth is:
All that you are, And could ever be, Is benign.
