The Taking Is Of Their Interest
Many lifetimes it seems,
Some have personalized their agonies...
To then witness more inflicted,
By those claiming to do humanitarian deeds.
Too few know what it is like,
To be disturbed from their peaceful nights.
To stare hatred in the face...
As if this sickness to inflict,
Has a rightful place.
Many lifetimes it seems,
Some have personalized their agonies...
To be belittled and disrespected,
By an unconsciousness infested.
And manifested from an ignorance...
Still insisting on someone's shores,
The taking is of their interest.
And that is their purpose...
To greed and flee.
As millions remain poor.
Then to declare themselves peace makers.
But no peace comes to this beast who leaves pain.
No gain comes to a mind driven insane,
By an entity that has come...
To monopolize their senses in disguise.
