Our tendrils have parted the cracks in the stars
as we slip through the space in-between
Cacophony echoes through the dark of the sky
and the air starts to split at the seams
The hunger is growing as the swarm is amassed
we're compelled to the prey we've caught

We are a sea of gnashing jaws and slashing claws
We are conclusion, we are the maw!
You are the chosen, gathered livestock
Marching solemnly to the gates of the slaughter inside out walls
MisfitOfSociety Apr 2019
On the first day when I lost my mind to the cosmos.
I found myself in the body of a pig. With other happy fat hairy pigs around me.
Being naked felt natural. I did not feel the need to clothe myself.
I layed in the mud all day long, letting it harden on my skin; god did it feel good, like a spa treatment except I didn't need to pay a penny. I would come out of my mud hole during meal time, when food was dumped into the feeder. I did not care what it was, hell, it didn't smell that good, but I ate it all up anyway. It could have been **** for all I know. I was content with this simple life, until the farmer threw a rope around my neck, pulling me into a freaky looking house with sharp objects hanging from the ceiling.
He tied me to a pole, making me feel nice a comfortable, treating me like a family member, only then to shoot me by surprise. To him I was just a big fat sack of meat.

I awoke from my life as a pig and found myself sitting on a couch. I was drenched in sweat, mouth gaping like an open ******* from what I saw.
My friend tried to talk to me, but I did not understand nor know how to speak the language of humans anymore. All I could do was squeal and oink.
I stripped naked, got down on all fours and started rolling around in the garden's soil just outside my house.
I ate the flowers that stemmed out of the soil, as well as the weeds growing around them.
The neighbors reported me for public ******, so I was sent to a mental institute, where I was taught how to speak like a human again and act like one too.

I gained a new perspective that day.
I vowed to all the animals that I would never eat them again,
and begun my journey into only eating plant based foods.

Vegan food makes my poo hard!
It is so good for me!
This is the benefit of living a plant based life.
If only you wanted your poo to be hard too.

On the second day when I lost my mind to the cosmos.
I was a carrot, and I had a family of carrots.
We were all buried underground, we never saw eachother, but we felt eachother, they were all around me.
I didn't need to breathe, I didn't need to move, I just needed to sit there, absorbing the solar rays that shone upon my green leaves protruding from the earth's crust. All I saw was darkness, but all I felt was warmth. I spent a thousand happy years as a carrot, but that changed when the havesters came.
They plucked us from our homes, tore us from our families and siezed the children!
They then proceeded to chop us up into bite sized pieces and boiled us in sizziling hot water, causing our skins to peal. We would then be served to the hungry mouths of the harvester’s wife and children, crying out for mercy, but our pleas were not heard, for they only heard with their ears, not with their feelings, like us carrots.

I awoke and found myself sitting on the couch again. Suddenly I was choking. I put my hands around my neck. I had forgotten how to breathe. Spending a thousand years as a carrot would do that to you, because you don't need to breathe as a carrot. My friend rushed into the room, and showed me how to breathe again, showing me how to **** in and blow out, which I did.
I had also forgotten how to talk, and needed to go to school once again to learn, because apparently talking with feelings is not a language.

I gained a new perspective that day,
I pledged to all my carrot brethern that I would never eat another vegetable again.
From now on I would stave myself so I could return to the earth,
feeding all the plants and animals.
My body is their salvation.

By cutting that carrot you are cutting yourself.
By eating that pig you are eating yourself.
You may not look the same,
but what you all feel is the same.

---

To you this is ******, but to me this is salvation.
In order to survive, I must feed.
The life that is strongest feeds on the weakest to survive, it is how we stay alive.
Nobody says a snake is a murderer when it swallows up a mouse.
Nobody says a venus fly trap is a murderer when it devourers a fly.
So why am I labelled a murderer when I eat meat and plant life?
Life needs to eat life,
It is how we stay alive.
Life needs to eat life,
It is how we survive.

---

I passed through the knot in the infinite line of things. I passed through the biological mapping of the knot, escaping my limitations, becoming limitless.
It was here where I saw myself in the carrot and in the pig. I saw myself in everything, and I saw everything in myself.
What The Actual ****.
Daniel Tucker Jan 2017
So still she lies,
Sleeping.
A cold room
Cold thoughts.  
Under cover of cotton and linen.        

A cold lonely wind
Cries outside
Longing to find solace
In the warmth of our home
But finding only that it devourers
By its own devices
What it so desperately desires.

Pain in my brow
Forged with hers.
Sharing breaks
Up the pain--
Comfort of depression's transitory end.

Why do you hurt the ones you love
When you want only peace?!
A lover of the land
Must plough the earth for yield
Break the ground in fury
To prepare it for seed.

This pain awaits our company
Like a bottle to a drunkard          
Or a needle to a ******.

Comfort is pain
Pain is comfort

In this violent serenity
As the calm peaceful sea
Can in one moment  
Turn into a tumultuous gale.

Is love for the using?!
Can a person justify
Putting lines of age on the face
And gray hairs on the head
Of the one they love?!

So many carry this burden.
Love shares common ground--
Seasons for ploughing and planting
And harvest,
The season of closure.

So still she lies
Beside me.
A cold room
Warmer thoughts.
Under cover of cotton and linen.

Under cover of compassion
And understanding.

You gotta keep working at it through the years.
Ralph Akintan Dec 2018
Snoring gangling giant,
Slumbering away on a snowy
      night.
Spoil of war unprotected,
Opening ways for ingress of
      worrisome infiltrated
      interlopers.
Remember the lord of Philistine
      Samusini,
Who returned not from the
      seductive antics of his
      mistress,
Perished in the furnace fire of
      frustration,
And drowned in the Laguna of
     no return

Slumbering hindered the move
      of the water.
Howling of devourers enclosed
      your shack.
Heterocercal caudal fins of
      sharks prevented the sailing
      of ships.
Wolfished wailing of tidal waves
      consumed the anchorage
      ground.
And the apparition of foes
      lurked-up in darkness like
      the foehn on the Alps.

Awake before the devastating
      night owl.
Awake from the abyss of deep
      slumber.
Awake before the cockcrow,
When darkness of defeats
Controls the reigns of night.
Snoring gangling giant,
Awake unto light.
‘How much more can one bear?’
Her words almost emerged from the rain
And echoed in the droplets’ din on the soil,
‘How much and how much more?’
Her voice rose above the thunder.
She was looking weird in the lightning’s flash.
‘The first man in my life left before I was a woman,
Let woe befall him I don’t remember his face.
He left me for the feasting vultures and wolves
And the devourers spared nothing but my bones.
God, I’ve no faith in him, played a greater devil,
From that lust of rain, a drop planted in me a seed
That birthed in this debauched heart a seed of greed
Of hope, of life, of a love of my flesh and blood,
One that I could bring and nurture with pride.
But my womb infested with the rivers of poison
Couldn’t ripen it enough to drop on earth
And there I was alone on the rough wild sea
With no land on sight, no shore to anchor,
Floating aimlessly where no light would ever shine’.

‘You write so much about loneliness and suffering,
Make it up having seen so little of the real face of it.
But I’ve lived them, each day sinking evermore
Into pits from where my agony’s cry couldn’t be heard.
How much more can one bear, how much more I still have to?’
Her words fell like thunder as the rain lashed the earth.

I knew the vainness of all the pictures I painted!
Josh C DeWees Oct 2013
The sound again
No the lack of
You can't hear anything
You try snapping
Nothing.
Yelling full force
Nothing.
You know you're not deaf
The world around you returns to normal sound
But it isn't right the shadows
Their deeper almost pit like
The oddity of the day pushes you
Now in a cryptic room
Cobwebs and silence
Scattered bones catch the eyes
The sound leaves again
The shadows deepen
Sound still missing you hear a sound
A something a nothing
A scratching sound
They
Scamper
Crawl
Slither
Ooze
Lurch
into the room
The darkness now trivial
These beast
No not beasts creations
Imagination run wild
The monstrosities of sleep
The monsters of fear
Death shrinks away
God flinches away
Jesus prays for your swift demise
The devil pleads for your quick end
These are long forget nightmares
The monsters that haunt man
What lives under your bed
What little toys man actually is
These are the devourers
They follow you home
The live silently
Until you notice them
The monstrosities wait
Don't try
Run and never stop
They still watch you
I watched it ascend
I beg you devourers
keep reading
Jeremy Betts Dec 2024
Can't hide the rigors
Of anxiety and fears
Even knowing what it harbors
Can't cloak their effects from mirrors
It figures
Such a force can disfigure figures
Right under the skin it lingers
The worst possible time is when it appears
Rears up to rip down the facade and veneers
The you you knew is what it devourers
What good are middle fingers,
When only directed at yourself?
For now,
I guess,
I'll have to put that question on the shelf

©2024
Austyn Pierson Nov 2012
Fingers seeking,
lips quivering,
eyes blank.

I've know you to not be there.
Fatigue and sorrow are old friends.

The clouds dance in a rythm,
mourning, the blood overflows and spills,
spills,
spills,
till my face devourers it whole.

I laugh at the rain, pattering down my neck;
You don't even know me.
You mean sorrow but I feel discomfort.
This wretched pain, my stomachs knows you too well.

Stop, throw it out,
better yet,
feed it to the rain, put on a show.

Those blue eyes are the light,
breath before you die.
Death? Perhaps you were already cold and a corpse.
But your beating hearts tells me otherwise.
Faith Montgomery Feb 2014
As my eyes lay upon the settng Autumn sun,
The West wind still lingers in the air,
Blowing the leaves of the poplar tree through my hair.

I close my eyes as the last light of day shines on my face.
Golden are the rays as they vanish beneath the earth.
Then all that is left behind is Darkness,
That devourers all that it touches.

The blackness cloaks all that is coming;
Coming for me.

But when the ravens fly overhead looking for me,
And the serpents scour the grounds,
I will have been long gone.
For my eyes have never again seen that pure golden light.
Closed to the Earth they are and, that they will stay.

Two roads await me now,
Wether I choose the left or right is unknown.
If you didn't really understand this poem it's because it is a symbolic poem. The symbols used are:
Autumn - Nearing Death
West wind- old age
Poplar tree- linked to the underworld, pain and sacrifice
Ravens- death
Serpents- evil
Left&Right-; to look to ones right is to look at the protector the ****** will go left
Black- cold negative aspects
Cloak- human trickery, assumption
Brittany Ann Jan 2021
I've become a victim of the night

the predators they howl my name.

Heads raised up with their pride,

a haunting silence in their taunting stride,

waiting for me to come their way.

Once the dark night hides the sun,

the greatest devourers have temporarily won.

For within the depths of my mind they stay.

All at once, they swarm, they stalk.

Overwhelming me, encircling me,

as I start to fall.

I'm caving in and I want to break

to protect myself I ease into a mindless escape.

Then, as the dark night slowly turns to day,

they leave me to be left in this vacant state.

When I arise from my wake,

a foolish relief to find,

there's a short absence from their taunting stride.

But, once the dark night hides the sun,

again I hear the predators ignite their cry,

and I've become a victim of the night.
what a waste May 2018
Sitting, picking at split ends,
fishing for volition in the deep end.
Twitching, itching skin past spent;
the Tinkerer's turning pen tips into trenches.
**** twigs, spit bricks til the crypt filled.
Sheer skill, no fill, spare me the semantics.
Hit the bench, kid, kick off the cool kicks.
These royal blue vans be too fierce.
Long live the worms, the devourers of dirt.
Here's to the ones molding the curve.

Your overlord's back, now pass me the torch.
Kick a door down like It's a word I'm after.
Craftier than those rats of Madagascar,
but I'd ditch the laughter, poetaster.
After all, you bow to a master.
Dig deep, DeadBeat's unleashed.
Good grief! His technique is Hulk green.
Guaranteed to knock you off your two left feet.
Whats wrong? Last I checked, talk was cheap.
mothwasher Jul 2020
sharpie bats lit against knotted wormy water in the fugue reservoir

wings caught and pinned on lonely patches of grass

her nightly squirming huffed and inked into jittery night critters

swarming her thighs

a bearded moth dazes off over the Gordian whitewash

pipes pumping a current of his brothers bodies

wet wings and carcasses, the lure of consequence

the bearded moth did not get too lost, sensitive to

the drawings of his furry devourers from the girl beside him

she says insects have never touched her blood

from the ether he thinks startling wing twitches,

punk echolocation, apologies learned not to be given,

touching water, even distribution of limbs

dripping disintegrating becoming the age of the earth

but the bearded moth

plays it cool and dries in the shape

of a man that looks apologetic. maybe honest.

she’s satisfied and sends a thousand

paper bats to rip apart the reservoir and

pull the grass closer together.

this is no one’s chance.

Destroyers
By Steven L Herring

From foreign shores
came the dragons fire
Hordes of killers and devourers
Wake
******
****
Strip
Take everything
Never sleep
Carriers of plague
Brimming with contempt

Their hearts hard and burnt
like the land around them
Subjugated
Subdued
Subclass
They would burn their own kind
Children's screams to pay no mind
Day in
Day out
With or without
a stare of indifference

A dragon's breath
makes his words worthless
Paper mache fire
Wearing a wire
in the precinct
Burning question after question
Minds on fire want to know though
:
Who's the dragons?
Jessica Duru Aug 2020
With my eyes,
I look up to the clouds,
my heart seeking for redemption,
wondering if it will ever be for me

I gaze endlessly at the heavens,
searching for God's salvation;
raising my voice so he would hear me,
and save me from the hands of devourers out to destroy!

To him I go crying,
my voice ringing bitterly as I call out to him,
with my knees kissing the bare ground!

From his heavenly throne,
He looks down to me,
watching every step I take,
and hearing every word that eludes my lips;
My heart is searched,
and buried within,
lies an ocean of sin
But yet true remorse is found,
and I be purged with hyssop,
and made a new creation

~Ciara
10-A PENITENT'S VOICE
A Cry For Mercy
Dear Lord,
I look up to you,
and with thine heart,
seek your salvation;
praying that you'd hear my voice,
and the voice of your children from whence you're seated
On your heavenly throne

Holy Lord,
we assemble in your presence,
our knees kissing your holy grounds,
crying and calling out to you;
so we may be purged,
and washed wholly with hyssop,
So our hearts be cleansed,
and our mind put at ease....

The poet personae here is no different from sinners. He goes pleading for mercy, praying that he gets another chance and be cleansed from every iniquity he has committed. We can make reference to our biblical, David, who'd committed a thousand sin to count but was yet forgiven and made pure again....
Niel Nov 2020
Those who thought it best to
swallow the traces of their roots and
float above so called ‘primitive’ gestures
found that the growth of those fibrous
nerves didn’t end in the guts of their
devourers. Soon enough they would reveal themselves once again as a reminder
and a revealer of what truly is.
Sparrow Jan 2020
I am hunted and trapped and I can never find rest from these devourers.

He looks at me with white-blind eyes, “Your beauty is your jagged edges;
Your screams ***** pearls,
and the nightmares in your mind are works of art.”

I shake my head.
I am prey.

He doesn’t hear or see me.
He licks his lips,
“You’re perfect.”
Artemis Jan 2020
I had a dream that I lost my job not too long ago
The subject matter itself isn’t what bothered me
More like the fact that it felt like a kick in the teeth in my sleep
A reminder that I can’t seem to stop misplacing things
I’m just so tired of thinking I know where my love and trust should be placed
Only for things to be turned around on me and somehow I’m always left
Wondering where it was that I left my glasses and hoping that after a second look it might make more sense
They always reveal themselves as devourers sooner or later
Hungry for whatever I have to give consuming time they have no purpose for
I told you too many times how I feel useless and helpless to the fact that I’m losing
And this is how you comfort me by taking more until I’ve grown pale and numb
So I’m lost and wandering again I want to say I’m hoping for something but I’ve done this a few too many times
Hope starts to feel like a cheat there is no relationship there just a few meaningless nights when she gets lonely
I probably misplaced my path too and I’m trying to find it I’m trying to hear you telling me where I’m supposed to be
There’s too many echos and it’s hard to tell if it’s saying you deserved this or something entirely different
On top of that I’m starting to care less about if it makes a difference anyway
If I had the choice to run away from everything I’m sure I would
And somehow I think you would find me there
Lost and trying to find everything I’ve misplaced
~W.C.
Dissolution of the World

Subject, object — lies and dust.
Fear and fables rule the just.
Spirit’s realm knows no divide —
If your mind is not denied,

Let it bow, and let it serve
Spirit's law with steady nerve.
Then this petty world will blur —
Like a trap with rotting curd.



---------------------



Rotten World

Serve the Spirit — break the lie.
This world’s a trap. Let it die.



---------------------



The Roofer

The roof of the world is leaking —
Or perhaps just slowly sneaking?
The roofer asks his bitter questions,
But trash replies with no objections.

These roof-devourers — just waste!
Ask the wall — you’ll get more taste.
No use seeking sense in **** —
Their skin is thick, their hearts are numb.

And their skulls are forged from steel.
Under lies, the world can’t feel.
If the rooftop slides away —
Who can tell, when lies hold sway?


---------------------


Sparrows and Propagandists

Chirp-chirp-chree —
The sparrow sings.
Mind can’t see —
Two-legged things

Got their brains
And souls scrubbed clean.
Washed down drains —
Now hear the scene:

Chirp-chirp-chree,
Not their mad moan —
Just pure glee,
Not lies from freaks they've overgrown.

Variations of the last stanza:
1.
Chirp-chirp-chree —
Not the freaks’ deranged parade!
Let truth fly free —
Not the filth those traitors made.

2.
Chirp, not lies —
Drown the freaks in their disguise.

---

Sparrows and ****

Chirp-chirp-chree —
The bird is singing.
Brains? Flee.
The **** are clinging.

Media bile
Has scorched their heads.
Gone in style —
Now truth lies dead.

Chirp-chirp-chree —
Not their sick spell.
Let minds break free —
And drag those ******* down to hell.

---

Sparrow vs. the Swine

Chirp away,
Bright little bird.
Brains decay —
Truth is slurred.

Media bile
Floods their heads.
Souls on trial,
Reason's dead.

Chirp, not screams
From soulless drones —
Sold-out teams
Pushing lies through megaphones.



---------------------



In This World of Empty Sound

In a world of hollow chatter,
Nothing's real — it doesn’t matter.
Even you are just pretense,
If you stomach the offense

Of a stinking, festering lie
Year by year — and still comply —
Trapped and tamed, a quiet wreck
In a madhouse full of dreck.



---------------------



Rot in lies, stay tame and blind —
Caged among the filth-designed.



---------------------



Problem — Reaction — “Solution”

Create a crisis, stoke the fear —
Let media scream it far and near.
Then all the worms begin to preach
Of “freedom” — just within their reach...

The “fix” is ready. What a feat!
That’s why the problem was so neat.
“Into your burrows! Shake with dread!
Obey! No whining!” — so it's said.

“A brilliant Führer leads us on —
The Earthly Paradise is drawn!
Forget your conscience — serve your skin!
Too clever? Gulag's where you’ll win.”

“Solutions” sprout from poisoned dirt.
New plagues are born — no need to hurt
Your brain with thought, when empty crowds
Are mute, and weak, and drugged with doubt.



---------------------



Scare. Obey. The lie’s in bloom —
And clever minds go straight to doom.



---------------------



Tight Set of Clowns, or The U.S. Two-Party System

Two grand parties, same old scam —
A clown parade since time began.
The lineup’s tight — a fool’s delight
Who finds such limits pure and right.

A circus show, the ballot game —
They “play” at freedom, what a shame.
Few clowns? No worry — here’s the twist:
They’re nearly clones, you get the gist.

It’s fake, and staged, and everywhere —
But Europe's got a wilder flair:
More masks, more crap — still slaves, still chained,
Still kneeling low, still soul-restrained.

---

Vote your clown, pretend it’s free —
Still on your knees. Democracy.

---

Tight Set of Clowns, or The U.S. Two-Party System (Dystopian Version)

Two parties — but they’re one at heart,
A clownish dance to tear apart.
A system built to mock your mind,
Where freedom's just a cage, confined.

A rigged charade, a poisoned choice —
The fools who “lead” with hollow voice.
Not just a clown — but mindless drones,
Their faces blank, like broken bones.

Imitation, lies, and chains,
Where Europe’s madness still remains.
The world’s enslaved, its future dim,
Forever chained — no chance to swim.

---

Clowns on stage, but chains remain —
A world enslaved, a mind in pain.



---------------------



Dystopia of Decay

Once bright minds are crushed to dust,
Beneath the weight of endless rust.
The truth decays, the lies remain,
A sterile world, where hearts are slain.

The rulers wear a mask of might,
But in their eyes, there's only night.
The people crawl, devoid of sound,
Their spirits broken, bound and drowned.

The streets are lined with hollow screams,
Where hope is sold in shattered dreams.
No voices left, no thoughts to lead —
Just empty souls, devoid of need.

The air is thick with choking lies,
A rotting truth beneath the skies.
Doomed to repeat the same old dance,
In chains, forever — lost by chance.



---------------------



Lost in lies, no light remains —
A world decayed, in endless chains.



---------------------



Degradometer

The speed of decay,
Now measured in time.
The world’s in dismay,
Occupied by grime.

It’s easy to fool,
To dumb down and maim,
But lying’s the tool
To extinguish the flame.

There’s plenty of ways
To rot all you see,
Propaganda’s blaze
Twists minds endlessly.

Start with the children,
The soul’s where it starts,
Then every decision
Tears truth apart.

In the degradometer,
The lowest is found,
A millimeter closer,
And you're doomed to the ground.



---------------------


Decay's on the rise,
Truth's lost in their lies.


---------------------


Reading Material

Agent Zero-Seven, Fool Zero-Eight,
Their bond is strong, yet no leads wait.
When children ask the Fool for truth,
They’ll get pure nonsense, lies forsooth.

For degradation, efforts must
Be spent on vile and poisoned dust.
What’s left but ignorance? Weakness —
Its value grows in endless madness.

War is cruel — it’s soul’s destruction,
The mind’s the target in the function.
Decay is here, it spreads and spreads,
Through clips and clicks and empty heads.

And then, some reading, just a bit —
The Fool responds, so sure of it.
He thinks he lives a life so grand,
With death, of course, far from his hand.


---------------------


In books of lies, they rot the mind —
Death’s distant still, but blind they find.


---------------------


Degradation

Degradation is the only law,
The one that rules us, cold and raw.
Spirit and honor — all are slain,
The mind cast out, the soul in chains.

Braindead fools across the land,
They crush you with a heavy hand,
Wasting your nerves, draining your might,
Bending you to serve their blight.

Here, the wise cannot survive —
Fascism completes its final drive.
All that’s left is to decay,
With muzzles tight and needles’ sway.

But nature sets the limits still,
Its law defines the bitter spill.
It breeds corruption, poisons all,
And expels the filth from every wall.

It all will start again, but then —
Without us, lost in death's own pen,
Unless we break fascism’s claw,
Before the Spirit fades and falls.



---------------------


Decay will rise, the wise will fall —
Fascism’s grip destroys us all.


---------------------


Intuition

In the sea of illusions, vast,
Intuition’s the saving mast.
For lost in confusion and strife,
You’ll drift like a fool through your life —

Until you turn on your inner guide,
It’s always been there, by your side.
But the social norms, so strong and cruel,
Fight it with force, try to make you a fool.

They drown it out with their poisoned lies —
Like "knowledge" that leads to your demise.
This horror of falsehood will quietly slay,
And drag all the minds in its sway.

Trust nothing at all — be smarter, beware.
Trust intuition, let it guide you with care.
Everything "known" is a lie at its core,
For the liar's behind it — the Beast evermore.



---------------------



Don’t trust their lies, they’ll lead you astray,
Only intuition can light your way.


---------------------



Questions Misplaced

Question — answer:
A lie and nonsense,
They leave a mark
For years to come.

In the mind, in the soul.
The result — it's done,
If you trust the Dark.
Like a worm in muck,

Living among lies.
Its worth is nothing.
Resigned? Well then —
In it, you'll rot.



---------------------


In the dark, you’ll rot and fall,
Living in lies, lost to it all.


---------------------


To Go Into Circulation

Pol ***’s not waiting —
No doubt about it:
The people are spent,
Their mark in history, lit.

What of the poet’s mark?
The editor's a ****.
If you push the lie,
“For us and you,” don't shirk.

Then forward, go —
Into circulation you’ll flow.
In it, the verse will die,
But the type will still comply.

And "cheerfulness" too,
And "optimism" —
THE LIES WILL GROW:
Around us, fascism's grim.

Fascism is always near —
And "perkiness"?
Then death is here,
Into circulation, no finesse.


---------------------


Fascism’s the game,
Lies bring no fame.


---------------------


Agent Zero-Zero... Minus Seven

Bond, to be "bonded"? Steal the sense —
Amuse with foolish tales and trends.
In entertainment, the world’s suspended —
Bread and circuses, to hell with the rest.

The media knows,
With mass culture, what’s the deal:
A slave for Darkness is needed —
Less "food" that will help the mind heal.

But heaps of crap,
To keep the people stuck,
Unable to escape,
Their minds lost in the muck of Evil’s luck.


---------------------
