we own it
it owns us
color it
every conceivable
shade of omission
yet it chews like a tapeworm
believe
your gut
football or fatigues
rationalized uniforms are prayed to
the west was 'won'
in fiery
'sacrifice'
destiny becomes
destiny
be honest
those innermost images
are a predictable story
bloodstained heroes
whitewashed cowards
when in doubt
attack & hide
in the gospels
the way forward
becomes cliché
our backs are turned
from history
unclaimed demons
come between us
