Image for the poem human

human

 
sideways smiles in land of Nod
glitter on the shiny faces of the culpable
while humanity breaks under the weight of sin

alteration of truth slips through the cracks
the unwary drown in lies
the shrouded face of the adversary goes unseen

you believe what you believe
I see what i see

future victims of hate scatter
everybody duck and cover
lest you be picked off
another casualty of naught

insidious visions collide in our minds
our hearts hostage to crime
this just in...more people die

the angles look the other way
nothing to do but collect sorrow's debt
in a world of pain

who is the victor?
