Slavers

Variations on a theme by The Shadow Band

We will win

Because they are slavers

And slavers know fuck all else

But the brutal art of enslavement

We

Create

Wonder 

But sadly

Collectively

We have also created the unholy fucking horror 

A horror echoing like a blooming RE-201 through the generations


But isn’t that the kicker?

We create

But so does something else

The thing we have forgotten

In our MAD rush to Monopoly gone geriatric nuclear bomb shit hit the fan soul crushingly unnecessary 

Brick wall


We come from the same place 

That stars and time and rocks and fish and everything beautiful comes from

Compare that place

To the horror

We have created on top

And I beseech each and every single one of us to believe 


We create

Something

More 

In keeping 





PS

This was the first track I played after writing this. I figure it to be worth a share. This, for me, is a fine example one of those beautiful things we create...
