Voice of Fate
September 16, 2009
I’m sorry friends,
But this can’t wait,
I am a voice of reason,
The Voice of Fate,
You’ve set a trap,
You’ve chosen bait,
You’ve pointed fingers,
You’ve mongered hate,
For me it’s plain,
Right on my plate,
I’ll make this simple,
And so I state,
“With the world at war,
You sit there dumb,
While the earth’s destroyed,
You twiddle thumbs,
While tyranny reigns,
You stand and hum,
You sicken me”
And now I’m done.
