I jump into mosh pit of lifes madness
crippled pilgrims fill the landscape
tormentors giggle and laugh with happiness

the common decency was once is no more
there is to much happening
words are bullets in this war
conversations are maddening

I stumble into the fray with good intentions
much to soon I lost my soul
and cognitive abilities were abandoned

firing at random
trying to hit any offenders still standing
all the time not understanding
I have fallen into their trap
and its oh so maddening

I am so tired of this war
and its truly never ending
moments of cease fire
brings on a much needed calm...
but its short lived
somebody is always bumping their gums
over running my defenses

time to reload
gimme back my bullets
I ready to shoot to kill
even though I know
its so senseless.

I dig the vibe here. Pulsating frustration. Well expressed.

Words can be powerful, but the language is deteriorating into a shorthand that leaves much to the imagination and far too much to interpretation.
You speak of those who are faster on the trigger than on the draw. They do not aim, they just fire, and they are shooting ourselves in the foot.
