Sanctuary

By ktzulu

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Fighting for sweet suicidal sanctuary But bound to the ominous present And shackled to the blood-thirsty vengeance of the past Is there any harmony in the unseen future Losst in the faceless sea of inhumanity Ostracized and brutalized in a civilized society Abused by the system of democratic freedom Voiceless in a country born on free speech And poor in the land of capitalistic dreams Singing the sweet praises of suicidal sanctuaryI am NOT suicidal, this is about feeling like second-class citizens in a first-class nation.
