developing in the midst of conflict
the imprinted warning that goes unheard
calling upon the onset of atrocity
the necessity for a deterrent example
a war that will not end
this determination to erase the difference
the ambition of a thousand inveracities
retooled
we live to the progressing stench of death
a formality of bloodshed
which is muted and forgotten
left in the embers of deadlock
backs are turned
led by the text of manipulation
carved into the spine
teachings of an ignorant decree
antipathy is seeded in the heart
to consume and dispose
what is not a certain perception |
