Sow To the Wind Reap the Whirlwind

faces, spaces & traces
 we each must go before the fault
 were all in the same cage here
 what you sow is what you reap

 once this life is done no chance to repeat
 we look inside no where else to hide
 in voices filled with the muck & mire of choices
 crayons, paper & pen

 Where do I even begin
 shadows taunt the sinner to come in
 vice is there for the taken
 the less that you give your a taker

 we labor for the legal tender
 in the fake land of the pretender
 toxic people with tombstones in their head
 It's the walking dead

 evil minds that plug destruction
 Satan's laughing spreads his wings
 let me pause to think
 can't even wink to dismiss this earthly bliss

 of a time well spent in thought
 when there's a dozen of pots in your sink
 to think before you act
 lines being drawn in the sand

 When will we ever understand
 we can't keep sticking it to the man
 abortion on demand
 the bloody fetus screams out for vengeance 

 Yet to no avail who will answer the call ?
