Bend

To protect myself from all mine enemies
and rid the world of injustice,
I shall bend.
To keep my lock box of sins safe,
from the prying eyes of the curious
I shall bend.
For my lock box of sins,
contain all that i hold dear
I shall bend.
When the morally objectible
congregate against me
I shall bend.
The long nights and short days
beg to be revealed and they shall.
The wolves at the door bay to their master.
All in the matrix that is our community
bend to keep la familia close.
The local and aliens far and near,
shall pray on bended knee for mercy.
To witness this first hand,I shall bend.
