#barkingtyrants
I long for solitude;
The day's barking tyrants
Drained my reservoir.
Thirsty for life,
I search for my oasis
On life's arid expanses.
I witness the crucifixion;
I watch firefighters burn books;
I can't resist the sirens' call.
The ionizing words mutate me;
I read, and I'm pierced.
The tyrant's visage, shattered.
