Scapegoat

I'm hiding here amongst your brood slowly hush communication poison I inject the mood begging for some segregation Sacrifice one, I implore you please and load him with your dark emotion when he's brought down to his knees allow him access to my potion Downhill drink and sniff and shoot twirl him and just step away most will grind him with their boot afraid their souls his poor display The neighbors they will Fedex pity bind with them so feed them thus tell them he is in the city then throw him weak beneath a bus He'll cobble there in frail despair rotting in and out no longer can he ever care converging with the undevout Now clear retire hacienda grand and drama free you'll have completed an agenda many infants drowned at sea

The concept itself of a Scapegoat is perfect on this day. The ultimate Scapegoat is our Savior who thankfully is risen. If only we reach out all is forgiven. Thanks for providing this contemplative piece.
