Leper Colony
Depravity, feral traits
- line drawn in the dirt
Dense unconscious streams,
it seems - line drawn in the dirt
Our inconsistencies
in singling out the human
Line drawn in the dirt
Smack us senseless through a lens
- least for the lesser
Burden's fit for scabrous waifs
- least for the lesser
Let the unsophisticated go unheard.
Least for the lesser
Line drawn in the dirt
Least for the lesser
Sweep back to the recesses
of furthest thought
Recoil and blank out the atrocities
meted out
Disembodied, disenfranchised
- introverted understatements.
Relax in the sheltered neutrality
of furthest thought
As observers we trivialize the
cruelty meted out
Line drawn in the dirt
