The Informed

We are informed before birth Yet we all stray the dark roads Playing Russian roulette with our very souls We are informed of the consequences How ever this world can seem to have no fences to not cross And we must rely on our own common senses to not suffer any loss We are informed by our maker Of a dark soul taker That will try to corrupt us with every lie As we wait here confined to the earth To draw our last breath and die Written by author Joseph Adam Burchett 2/9/12

I hope those playing Russian roulette don't wind up like Christopher Walken near the end of "The Deer Hunter". This is a decent write.
