Descent
wandering amid the carnage of lost souls
wadding through screaming decay of
self-rightious biggots and no-win saves
seeking some way out of this descent
Cadavers of the mind reach out to
flay the will from me
drag my passion down into the bloody dust
to die with them
the mortal normalcy
the teror of man's existance
the day-to-day duel with 'how you should be'
clawing away at them
striving for individual exspresion
passion of mind and soul
dreams of mystery and enlightenment
freedom from humanities descent
