Dominance

Dominance
Hobbes

Snowflakes fall
from the sky.
Days go on,
people die.
Never fall,
Never cry.
Continue on our way.

Passion burns,
Hearts ablaze.
Haters hate,
Zelots praise.
To the next
pointless craze
The cycle never ends.

When you seek,
Do you look?
Innocence
that they took.
Thrown away
in a book.
Our lives mean nothing still.

Closing in
for the kill,
As they burn
We will chill,
Bodies lay,
Blood will spill.
We throw freedom away.

March along,
Drums will sound.
Step by step,
Hearts will pound.
Shots are heard,
Hit the gound.
We won't give up just yet.

Every climb
Has a drop.
Move along,
Never stop.
Once again
We're on top.
And humans rule the world.

Animals
Useless slaves.
oppressing
lesser naves.
They shall lie
In their graves.
Meaningless evermore.

Time to settle the score

Lashing out,
Tooth and claw,
Never heard,
Never saw.
Ripped appart
By my maw.
Dominance established.

Message taught,
Lesson learned.
Voices lost,
Letters burned.
History
left unturned.
Humans will never change.
