Cookies of Death
Words by Bryon Bowers
saw a god like figure
standing on a hill
flying over life
I was standing still
same dream every night
but a different day
world burning
A fake orange smile
with a greasy sway…
cookies of death
Smiling innocent down the stairs…
a cruel world
waiting outside an oasis
made of apathy
and anonymity too…
watching the world hold
against a wave of hate and silence
people stand and watch a tyrant
laugh as they do
eventually they will come for you
working hard at your task
hours go by
we fuel the machinery of hate
we allow it to fester and do its deed
injustice for one
is injustice for all
phone still ringing
Gonna take that call?
cookies of death
walking down the stairs
tyrant is ranting
selling his wares..
frogs on a slow boil
nobody cares…
