THE CARNAGE SEWN

As this life now quickly drifts away, 
                        I'm unable to look around and say, 
                       Look at all the difference I've made...
                      Sewn is the carnage I now reep today..

   The fields I'm forced to work,  like a nineteenth century slave;
                             With only my two bare hands
                     under a sun of a southern summer day...

      My sweat pouring down like a thunderstorm drops it's rain;
                As every new day leaves, more and more pain.
       Captured are all the moments that created this disarray...
      Ignored was the spiraling, from all your mindless yesterday's ;
           That now lies before you, like a body in full decay...
