Generations of Clues
I burst into this world covered in the muck of my descendants.
The church
poured water, dismissing the demons' rants.
Did “they”
really believe “they” would leave?
The battle
of the good and evil would forever cleave.
They came
from a hundred years present and past.
Fighting for
first place to see who would last.
The greed,
the giving, the love, the hate,
Hurry, take
over fast, and don’t be late.
Kill the mind,
devour the body, and don’t let good ride high.
Those cells
from past grandmothers caused many to cry.
“They“ didn’t
fight them; they laid down and died.
Never
knowing how to choose the Y in the road,
Away from death and onto the living mode.
Generations
of clues pissed in the winds,
No attention was paid to the past hidden sins.
Sweep the
rain that cleanses generations dead cells,
Into the
drains and into their Hells
Where they
belonged long ago
Before they touched
deep into your soul.
