they came

they came from distant places

destroying the land

&

all those who

sought her just reward

for

planting seed

&

virtue

they came

to cover the truth

to file grievances with even their own creator

&

to have us all

(me & you)

do the same

even though our Creator(s)

were different

they came

to make simulations of what was once living

&

sell it to us all

(you & me)

at prices too steep to be even considered

insane

just to feed their need

they came

honoring nothing

&

preparing never to soften their hearts

that is if these beings

even have those

I watched

from a distant consciousness

to understand the meaning of it all

to show Creator(s) I still care

to thank them for the chance

to become apostate for truth

&

in hopes of finding some answer

to what they've done

I wait for another life

to express my talents honed

the music in my head

must wait to be played when the victory dance begins

they came

&

as the clock ticked

the time moved awkwardly

yet everyone seemed too busy

to even notice

they came

disguising themselves

infusing their needs

through calculated breeding

through repetitous teachings

through confusion

&

fixation

through creating other gods to honor

to lessen our value

&

make slaves of us all

pray now to the corporation who provides for you

as they prey upon your life-force

a trade I can never find rational

run with the hunt if you choose

but remember

pack mentality

&

the larger the crowd you stand in

the less humane you become
