Excuses don’t cut it anymore,
just another way to remain – sanitized.
Free from the wealth of information,
no opinion to cloud your mind.
Sympathy – surrogate compassion,
mass consciousness hijacked by broadcasts;
dilute – delude – denying action.
I am alive
and dying daily.
Never afraid
and yet it is
the love that saves me.
Unrestrained, so it
never seems that easy.
No one denies eternity;
all that is me.
Never wonder,
never hunger,
never eat of others,
yet we feast
on the meat
of our weaker brothers.
Let their blood
fill the void
we’re afraid to cross,
so we erect
another wall
and it all
leaves us at a loss
for words…
… so fucking absurd.
HG – 2000-2005
