Trust Is Another Matter

pandemic morpho toxicity the sludge squeeze from the geysers of torture and rape one after another life feeds on life the pilfering of our peoples the siphoning of our souls milling upon the millions minions minimizing our emotions someone wants to own it all but does not respect the privilege gather around the fire the heat keeps us through the night i cry for a thousand years for those ive never heard of dont deny this places conditioning my dry eyes can feel relief harden like the walls of our egos i insulate and isolate treading in the quicksand of my own fears change is inevitable, so become i once was young power an elusion shrouded by the characters who drive their own machines to bitter end i forgive you trust is another matter
