The Rot

This nation is bleeding
Your terror is far reaching
Our system has failed
Our people are now dying
The field is now even

Our armies are oppressing
They are pushing back the terror
But are they winning this war?
This war that can’t be seen
Choose your disease or breathe the air

All hope may be gone
The fall of the elite
But there are a few which take this vital breath
We won’t choose your weapons
But we spread the fire
We can run but we are tired of running
You keep spreading your terror
But we will resist the temptation
The undying question
Can we burn you too?

This rot is spreading like a parasite takes control
Human race is a parasite
Spreading all within you
You believe the lies
Your choice is based on a lie
The end has always been the same
I am stronger than you
I see through the lies and this rot
I do not fear your terror
As terror will be met with terror
And I am the terror you will forever fear

I am the rot in you
I am the freedom you preach but will never taste
I have the black you spread across this world
I am the very hate your legion of liars posses

You depend on me
So you can blame this accident
On the bullshit you believe
Are you ready for the end of your life?
Are you ready to sell the lies?
I am coming for you let’s pretend I am already inside you

hi syphon, this is the 3rme I've tried to make a comment. my netbook has a mind of its own. Firstly I like the way you have recurrant themes throughout the rant: fire, desease, war spread out. Secondly: the rant is very unformed as yet, more a stream of conscience than poetry. As if you have more than you need there... 3rd: a few spelling mistakes for you to find. 4th: I enjoyed reading it: well done!

maisie angel Guess what?  I'm still alive!
