RustA Poem by Phillip J ClaytonWhen there's no more; No more worry, no more pain. Humanity will bleed; Limbs will tremble, it will all crumble. Worthless gutless pigs! Left to bleed! We are violence! No God, no masters, no glory! Remove the heads; Hang them for all to see; Put them on their knees; Ignore their plea! Slaughtered sentences; Murdered by words; Preachers and greedy world leaders; Death to the pigs! Staring at broken clocks; Chaos has been given birth; Steeples stained red. A screaming child, The starving mother, Blessed be the church. Set a fire; We will watch it burn; Filthy cowards, a failed creation. If there was a stairway to heaven; Both sinners and saints would climb. Existence is futile; We are rusting wounds. © 2015 Phillip J Clayton |
