corruption is a fantasy
played amongst the vines of youth
by those that view life
through eyes of evil
taking our impoverished
from our sight
that we may be thankful
when we are blinded by it all.

yet, this allowed
we have none the heart
to fight back the tide
that cancers our souls
begging the question
of how we live
in this false time
of absolute prosperity.

failing this, as we must
we are second to our dreams
that have fallen
from our hands
like the tears we have shed
for those we have lost
against a will we made
more powerful by our ignorance.

Michael, I could hear you crying out at the injustices of it here, lessons learned hon, you have learned another.  You won't make the same mistakes again.....
Wonderfully superb writing here hon..
