And the Band Played On....Part I

Piranhas, within a canaries cannibal world.... Feasting upon the flesh, of another innocent and vulnerable life Delivered by the hands of darkness' entrenched; unknowing but willing, messengers of woe! In hopes of crippling and destroying, by means of ridicule, guilt and shame The subtle and not so subtle, of the spiteful and scorned.... Chatterings like arrows, from their poisoned bows Within comments and verse, and their opened air words Always the same-looking for their entrance, to bring another to their knees To evoke their own will? These amissfully mangled and subverse desires Within, these shatteringly tainted dreams.... Relentlessly they search, for the Achilles heel, to crumble yet anothers hope! Traveling through these mediums of morbids main, and fluttering hearts.... In through the side doors, and along the corridores, via way, of the shadowish mind Enter the sublimes of deceivings presented, before all of Heavens sight! While as half closed eyes stand in silence, all about, within muted watch.... Reminding myself of a case years ago; where a young girl was beaten, stabbed and murdered As at least a dozen different people, cowered within their rooms Amid her desperate cries, beggings and pleas for help; help, that would never arrive!? So such it seems so very often, among many within this society in which we live.... Whom turn their backs and avert their glance; while bowing their heads, and walking on by Back, into their own blackened holes!....(Cont)
