You walk in darkness, but I can only follow you from a distance through the shadows that grew in the wake of the quake that war planes make. I can see clearly, cry out, but you don’t hear me. Your deafness is a remix of ridiculous, and terrifying. Your actions leave me crying, trying to deny what I spy with my tear strained eyes. Liars and the gullible, go looking for more trouble because chaos is good for making more war revenue. I keep telling you that this is wrong, That the foundation that you are standing on is built on dust, and ash, so in a flash you can sink into sorrow like its quicksand. This isn’t my last stand, cause I got a few battles left, got little time before death comes to collect my last debt, so I’ll go a few more rounds. I have no faith that you will change how you act, or even consider how those who suffer feel. All I have left are these words to spill.
