Gathering flies behold un-swatted skins

immobile hands are bound to crooked necks

singing chains burn deep into warbound flesh

Befitting moans are ample and constant

weary the tussle of dragging mockery

under spirited laughter of free men

Now see here- along the eastern riverbeds

shameful lines of the thousand sold

Scores more lost to their kings

Barking women rattle cages in passing sight of golden

centurions-holding the ravaged at spearpoint

Bound behind the supreme they remain

for the many days journey to their fateful purchase

tanned into leather and burning in the day

promises of death whisper in the rain

Now artifacts of a worldly divide

an assumption of power reroutes the unfit

Bonded Behind Supremacy

Silent heirs to quivered arrows

Ancestors to a visage of serfdom

as empty purses carry weight of hope

Purge your violence not from thee

This vigor serves empire for much needed labor

Until the fires of Hades claim your damned soul

fingers will reap this land to you borrowed

Paths of kinship punished by the whip

traded for coin a mothers baying fruitage

Bloodshed above trembling swords

in the wake of a moments scream

Fighting men of thee meet finality

to cheerful crowds grow dim and vanish

Befitting moans are ample and constant

weary the tussle of dragging mockery

under spirited laughter of free men

Now see here- along the eastern riverbeds

shameful lines of the thousand sold

Scores more lost to their kings

Barking women rattle cages in passing sight of golden

centurions-holding the ravaged at spearpoint

Burn...

Bonded Behind Supremacy

Guilty

Of weakness

Poverty-

Punish them

Burning bones

In mighty heaps

Suffer them

To Blindness
