Snails Pace

insistent perversion of civil conversion massive revision of a confused vision constant migration without true progression simple submission to cruel oppressions political sciences becoming less reliant governing systems aggressivley intolerant from emperors and kings , time still stings oligarchy , monarchy , their orchestra rings loud bells , a reminder , of continued changing of the guards at hand , with whistles to blow single file is the motion , directive we go safe in their judgement , confident they know unsure are the masses , trudging like molasses oblivious to incesstant remarks harrasing world history has proven our given illusion self inflicted pain with streaming delusions we are taught this reality to accept cruelty to bow and grovel to a scheme so novel time will only tell if all goes well until then we'll remain as snails in a shell .
