standing ovation
spinning sensation
twelve million faces
black market aces
rivers flow with blood
far and wide
pleas and cries
please let me die
release me from
endless plight
endless spite
endless night
relentless
axiom
crumbling
babeldom
speechless
chameleon
breathing
new Babylon
con fusion
God’s illusion
human substitution
route retribution
perpetual cycle
wrong versus right
compulsion to fight
blind sight
zero insight
absent hindsight
kiss your child
good night
that which is man,
back to where it began:
a mother kisses her skeleton baby goodbye
and buries him in the sand
