Beached Children III

Advantage conformity
Forget your own humanity
Individuality is a false idolatry 
Lethargy is our new empathy
Welcome to society

Allowing the violence
Of empathy to define me
Breathing in the toxically clean air
Beyond all my life's prayer savings
Board haunted up mansion like dreams
Of lands beyond waking memory
Beyond this life chanting voices
Past our repetitive cursed lines
Of our unrealistic fairness
Only defiled by this:
Our ongoing dream
A lie of violence
On karma
and...
Oxygen
The beauty of breathing
Muddled breath of dying life
Can't possibly be our definition of happiness
Our impurity: this idolatry of torture
Is the a coffin of remorse
We don't even feel
While surviving
Or so we call it

Advantage conformity
Addiction scares away the memory
Communion's wine masks our lethargy
We're stained with empathy for a regurgitated Amen
A stable doubt murdered out guilt that would awaken shame
As G-d she remains lethargic so we too are silent
Watching karma attempt to carve children
From our ashen black road to hell stone
Out of the sea endless tomb shores
Where she lost all her friends
Kids who sank like rocks
In an ocean of pretend
Make believe hope
It's a sea of...
Her sadness
Maybe G-d is a fixation
A voice derelict in my head
My inconsistent sleeping imaginary hope .
An L.S.D misinterpreted dream
Silent amidst their torture
Because it's so unreal
A thread of waking
Splintered and buried
Amidst the poison of hibernation
Our willingly dismissed reality
Empathy is a curse
To which we won't...
Willingly wake up
