Sacrifice

Maybe a sacrifice would help          
virtual blood spilled          
across the internet          
used as a keyboard          
for a victor's comment          
         
Yet, I doubt it . . .          
truth is, if it's not me  
it will always be someone else          
         
Somebody crossing their path          
with that one dissenting voice        
         
That's what really hurts  
them, a change in pitch      
from what they want    
despite everyone's ability          
to speak their own light      
         
Only a miserable soul          
attempts to douse a light          
they aren't forced to view          
just so no one else          
could see its Truth        
   
and, who knows . . .  
perhaps think for themselves        
when given a choice
