The Lies of Elders


we inherit our fate just like our facial 

expressions and composure, just like 

our attitudes,predispostions, and all

those memories we swore as a child

were not ours because we saw them

on the big screen...  we learned from

the best that deception is much better

than honesty especially if one is still

an adult and living on the side of 

justice that protects the wealthy...

we loan our spirits to the gods that

built rome and athens and who created

the democracy under which we live

today as if they were still ruling the

skies above our heads and the hollows

of the earth below our feet...  we see

the lies that are interwoven into all

their silk garments and dangling

from their strands of hair like blood

dripping from the carcas of a slain

soldier that has no more value dead

than it had when alive and fighting.
