Engraved

Why do you persist on me?
mutilated cortex formed of clay
injections of the chop will protect the false
headless leaders will stand down
we, close our eyes, while death, infects our veins
Erased like the rest, living of sewer scraps
another lie for the pacifying masses
dissecting newborns while the dollar is conceived
we close our eyes, while death, infects our veins
