Nix

 For years, I have tried to understand

The pillars on which this fucked society stands


Humans, control, wars and bloodied hands

The killing of the lands & deeds inhuman  


Oh the women looking for their freedom’s lumen

Battered, raped and killed by the insecure boogeymen


Let’s not forget the most colourful of our specimen

Who try as hard to just be, but cannot even


We’ve forced an image of what makes a man, 

And readily sacrificed the futures of our children 


There is no compassion in the basic curriculum

We’ve battered our selves & them glum, dumb and numb


All for the chase of control, status and income

All to maintain a broken & skewed system


We’ve perverted the use of our collective wisdom 

Succumbed to every flavor & crumb of violence


To stifle our own grandstand end, into silence

But there is no defiance, no other outcome… 


In legacy’s lens, than a big fat zero-sum 

And Death’s eternal, irrefutable hum
