struggling to make it make sense
rat racing across angry gridlocked streets
tacky blacktop blisters overheating engine blocks
street drain covers steaming hiss
it's all a muggy mess
gridlocked interstate commerce
commute times increasing
there's panic on these filthy streets
a virus is taking seed
it's only getting hotter
fires ignite
curfew sirens and floodlights
light up the night
there is a panic setting in
growing internal turmoil
the unrest spills out to the street
public leaders plead for calm
the race to the bottom is on
out come the sewer rats
fat cats send out their muscle
lines are drawn and only
blood moves them
the fight for the right to fight
was won and continues
damages are inflicted and received
believers and others make themselves
betray which lets reason and lessons
never remembered go away
good stock and good breading
the vultures continue feeding
waiting for the final act
a requiem for a dream vision quest
for the rest of you waiting for
your own messiah coming
to save the day you look west.
