On and on

We're the gods and the monkeys,
the animal and the angel,
demons and the saviors
baffled by our own behavior,
stifled by the screaming silence
we act out in defiance and division,
no interest in alliance
we'd rather remain imprisoned
in our differences and dark decisions..

We're inventive and destructive
with our incentive to improve or neglect
erecting endless things day in day out
no doubt it's dulling
and drones on and on..
We're lovers and we're killers
dreamers creators and "sinners",
watch us wobble between
fantasy and reality,
between sanity and lunacy
looking for ourselves
and love and everything else..
but we tend to get lost in every layer
pretending to believe we perceive
the power of words or prayer,
assuming we deserve and should receive
all that makes life "greater"..
while never understanding we be
the true saviors.
