Each Man's Cross

In the blistering cold out there
a dive, seemingly harmless lure
despite doubts of absolute blur
leaving none for man to endure

Reciprocating, unending
this sick cycle of ignorance
Deceptively everlasting
this notion I concur, a nuisance

Traces behind true act's despair
leads to a road of perdition
Into every whims and each stare
fold to discord, absolution!

If God speaks of pure blasphemy
not in a sense from the obvious
norms which forms a vile society
all that burdens us, our own cross.
