Hatred collapsing down and in on itself

like the vile fucking plague that surrounds it

Abhorrent figures with ignorant minds

seeking only one comforting image

I deny

I am alive

Rotting flesh permeates the air

A child is crying its grave

Piled in the dirt

Clawing my way back

Up into the cold night air

Ashes; the children in the background

Taking back what's mine from the virus
