Bitter Sweet Words
Embellished, shined, publicized
Display put on their empty core
Listen! You must abide laws. (Seize!)
The narrative of freedom, a screen.
Adore something you know nothing about
Honey like texture of sweat and sour
Fools your taste of flavor, makes you devour
Your truest nature, freshness, born greatness.
Smell their petals of fragrant flowers.
Hear their robust voice, a rallying cry
Rejoice in their sweet flavor of right.
Layers and layers on top, engineered
Made to seem bright, a call to arms. (To our demise!)
Heed the bitter sweet words
Their sentient nature,
Their abomination of truth.
