Help Me Now

I look at humanity’s existence
Crawling on hands and bloodied
Knees saying, “Please, Help me now”

Man in top hat
And cravat
Looking down
Spectacled nose
You spout prose
Speaking endlessly
About yourself

“Help me now.”
A phrase drowned out
In the busyness
Of all the atrocities
You commit
Crawling on hands and bloodied knees
You exist
Lost in thought
Having sought
Perfection in life
You lie to yourself
A victim of a mad mind
You whisper out
“Help me now!”
“Help me now!”
