Ages pass and monsters scream
Timeless enemy always taunting and haunting
Night and day like a malevolent finger
Different people and their art worked things
The only salvation lays in the grave
Constant battle for a life so cruel
Yet never relenting to the enemies scythe
Poetry and art are these peoples tool
Survival guidelines laid within open hearts
Bleeding wounds are deeper than flesh
Minds destroyed as the monster cackled
Webs of pain and misery cover every breath
Racking coughs and tortures lies lay behind
Yet hopeful while rocky futures lay ahead
The demons to be defeated one at a time
Led by intelligence not what others said
Insanity in actions of the countless fools
The depressed and insecure standing tall
Past others hatred that just rambles on
Big bad giant against David did fall
The bloated bodies of the enemy lay behind
Season after season and time after time
Hatred and anger replaced with serenity
Truthful words, faded barbs, tis not a crime
Pen not a razor as the midnight oil burns
Burned at the stake, this nightfire consumes
Not a death, but a rebirth; change in seasons
Nauseated by stupidity and the screaming fumes
My heart laid bare; I am who I am.
