Selfish Saviour

You call into question behaviour.All because you wish to become known as saviour.Delicate hand upon a faded relic.Double take suggests you wish to sell it.Make a stack and flee the system.Reinforced by your snorts of derision.Poor imitations of disgust and outrage.Offensive is not something that’s ever phased.So to see it now I know its putContinue reading “Selfish Saviour”

But no one listens enough to invoke change.Am I the only one that thinks this strange?Sometimes it feels like I’m alone.Fighting a tidal war that can’t beContinue reading “Treading Bleak Waters”
