THE BAD SEEDS?

There’s no peace for the undying
Who stay here in our heart
No place to bring them back
To where they had their start.

But maybe they don’t want
What we think we need
To try to plant a hero
From our bitter seed.

They went and gave their all
So we could be the star
To light up the sky
Up there where they are.

But we are just a glimmer
In the eye that they saw through
Would here of us alive
Do, what they could do??

Would you put your being
Out in front of "HERE"
To keep others from seeing
What, you think you fear?

CATCH 22 is something
We let slowly slip away
So we can sit back and watch
"Big Brother" have his way.

But, who is that brother?
Who says, "DON'T USE THEM CAPS"
The same ones who buy the "stock"
Upon, those final "Taps".

We willing, meaning, humans
With our wealth of greed
Will reap and harvest
That last dead, dried seed.

Make sense?

You're scary. But your writing rocks.
