Virally infected

The winding clock directing its arms

As slowly the spinning world

Becomes

An atmosphere based upon

Schizophrenic results

The mind has become as dark

As those thoughts blaring across the skies

And while the sun screams bloody murder

Religion thrives upon

Death

Wooing those,

Those who are weak, deep inside

Creating dust falling from the palm

Where the soil has grasped another

And everyone cries

Guilty hath survived

As blame travels worldwide

While a mother and father wonder why

Those sympathetic words of poetic minds

Are incapable  

Unable to cure this earthly epidemic

For the mind as intelligent as it may be

Is still

Lost and held within the past

Virally infected

Programmed to accept or deny

And I, you, we who also sit and wonder why

Life is no longer cherished

Or was it ever

As those who cheat us of our own

Those who hide behind senseless ideologies

Screaming justice blended with revenge

A hidden terminology

Of disgust for mankind

They cheat us

The cheat us out of memories

Friendship and companionship

The cheat us out of

Unknown love waiting to be known

That viral infection cloned within our midst

Held within an old mentality

Held by radical minds of psychotic puppets

Who follow, only themselves

And though a poets words

Are incapable 

Unable to cure this earthly epidemic

I will not be cheated

I will not be denied of exposing myself, my thoughts, and my undeniable right to claim that my mind is as clear as Light, my skin is only a layer of color pressed over my heart that is as loyal as freedoms song.

My Soul is independent and seeks to fill my mind with enlightenment not with religion or causes of death, for when one is but the puppet who walks among men and cannot see beyond the rage created by the few his road is but a destiny into the abyss and not the glorified Heavens of which we have not seen.
