Crimson Egos

Crimson Egos by Lori Maria Walton (2014) skins gold brown, pale pink, formed before names religions of submission, sedition, scarcity, and stocks who created the numbness of your arguments? egos inflated, lift presidents far away from ideas of peace creating blood splattered trays served as media sacrifice to the gods of greed, malice, hatred, violence, and injustice khalaas. bas. khuttum. finito. stop! darkness filtered through darkness, smoke rising to the top of nostrils bereft of empathy, insatiable appetites eating their own brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, children of ONE HUMAN RACE. soft voices scream loudly for peace, smothered by masquerades of artillery, shooting divisive words of fear, pocketing smiles of hypocrisy, as commands of self righteous wars lead further down the path away from justice, equality, and freedom.
