injustice is of man
like shattered dreams
the faithless bleed
unconsciously within
on city streets,bless the meek
as shadows take their form
while silence soothes
it would behoove you
to question what it means


From spoken truth,
to tongues that lie
the world keeps spinning round
untimely deeds,designed to seed
the fear of pushing back
if every thing is everything
stop judging with your eyes
the human race
it's current state
unworthy of design


While seeking signs
between the lines
are written what's to be
society's progressively
turning into stone
as the fire burns
symbolic terms
are written on the wall
survival of the fittest
no honesty required

You have a way with words! Keep writing and use your talent to reach the lost. The harvest is plenty, but the laborers are few.

Well written. There's something unsettling about the underpinnings of society these days, and you've described it well here.

Symbols,hand signs and numbers are what
The decievers use to keep lies hid and
The plans in motion

I truly love everything you write
