a call...
a call
to arms
purely figuratively
as a
distraction
of make believe
a cruel
gesture
soon forgotten
as would
an old friend's
demise
unexpectedly so
a tragedy
beyond
the economy
a lineage
lost
in shadows
daily
as the rain
never comes
to fertilize
the soil
of youth
and good times
only drifted
into clown town
a crazy train
nonsensical statistics
compounded
by lies
misfortunes
of the many
subtle deaths
suddenly
by design
more lies
divide
more staged
event planning
to lullaby
the weak
and tired
a drowsy
violation
of yet again
thievery
into ruins
irreversible
the question
patience
in pause
after propaganda
plausible deniability
a bone
to step
and fetch it
insulated
by my own
reckoning
for now
survivable
in blind
ignorance
maybe
maybe not
time telling tail
wagging
my dogs'
too
in results
so far
sustainable
healthy
happy
they too
oblivious
chicken
and sweet potatoes
garnet
yellow
squashes
in addition to
offal
never forgetting
competition
in nature
meat bee season
in a land
of lax luxury
awaiting
the door
to chaos
to open
if
and when
the script's
direction
for
a call
to arms
