Prey
different faces
some are chaos
subtle itch
hidden by masks
bone to pick
consumed in guilt
false identity
we’re simply built
throw the stone
web site wars
revealing faults
human insecurity
is this our best?
unimpressed
it’s quite sad
and second guessed
egocentric lies
fuels timid fires
a brave keyboard
shields ignorance
lost souls
falling deeper
pride kills hope
meet your reaper
death is lonely
forged in deceit
black clouds
invade light
chameleons
adapt they say
maybe they hide
to devour prey

This is a powerful philosophical poem Dave...the existential truth of our postmodern world...a world of masks and anger.
