succumb to the white noise
the trembling hand reaching
for a loaded gun
the last three days in your
delicate arms
all hope extinguished in the
eyes of children as a red hot
rage protests in these dying
streets
laugh
laugh at all of them that
dared to not believe in
you
wash away your sins in a
fresh bottle of liquor stored
away for the revolution
break out the good silverware
and the plates only used on
holidays
they are serving up your lord
for dinner tonight
may we all dine in the lavish
relaxed nature of hypocrisy
