Detached

Detached

 

(That's what they are)

From the everyday people

who only try, day-to-day

to get by

in this system

which they created for us. 

They have money and

lives of privilege

and 

operate

on a different plane

fighting

political battles

money battles

foreign battles 

and we

are naught

but pawns

statistics 

in their never ending 

game of RISK.
