Listen to poem:

We Leave Em Here

These vast expanses and love for luxuries,
The dint and dainties ever luring, 
The beams that bend our narrow necks, 
The cares compelling all to the gate,
Our wars and wearying ways for filths 
The ego fanning fist for fights, 
And these for vain we vaunt and vent.
We wane in time, and leave em’ here.
