Collateral Man
Some sun sent straight through the riddled sky
blistering forward in brave reprise
the silhouette of a stranger dawn
the ***** of grandeur, emissive, strong
masquerade of a less placid pawn
stink of firestorm in cavernous eye
blazing ember in the pit of sight
restless mask, protruding glass
the sold now sit behind entrapped
the onward glare of marching minds
autonomously grips and grinds
the foul spell of its riddled woe
fervent tyranny whittles, molds
shells the straps that bend and hold
glittery gossamer blackened tryst
of power, hunger, greed and fists
slapping fate with criminal charges
turn the guard and crumble logic
pass the weightless forms of youth
with high regard for rotted fruit
undone with passion
to the roots
the death of Reason's grim salute
