BEAST

you weren't supposed to forget
how you were vermin
and your lives weren't shit
on the shoe of your enemy
and how the hearts of the world
opened like the gates of heaven
to give you refuge
 
weren't supposed to forget
but i swear
it looks like you hate as good
as any
 
asshole
you've wasted all your virtue
on vengeance
and branded a new generation with hate
and damn if i won't turn my back on you
you ugly goddamn beast of war
