why are we all in need of harm
images of pain splashed across the screen
reality shown but truely not seen
lights growing dim to much poision in the air a searing hole a pollutant tear
earth giving way its time for her defense
while we clutter building a border fence
scared of our own these demons in disguise looking for fault we fumble in the lies
gossip and spite so easy to spill
we look for the weak and jump for the kill
bashing our tongues in lives thats not ours
judging our neighbours to hide our disguise
shinny and without sin but we cast all the stones
why do we care its not reaching our homes
follow and weave watch out where you step you name might be banished yet [comments] => 3 [counter] => 143 [topic] => 43 [informant] => lostrelic [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
