Deep State

Deep State                              5/24/2016

On the cusp of forever

Man grasps at immortality

A treasure for the few

At the expense of the many.

Obsolete for labor

And replaced by robotics

The innocent useless

To the high and mighty.

Used up and discarded

Unworthy and raped

The powerless rubbed out

Over nothing at all. 

Hated and expendable

We see the ash heap beckon

Piled high with bones

Of human waste.

They think

They have forever

And they think

They are immune.

Laughing at the honest

And mocking the faithful

Stealing every advantage

Behind closed doors.

Planning their escape

And plotting their wars

Imagining they can win

Even against God.

The look among us

And they search out

The threats

Analyzing everything

For absolute control. 

Guiding our hopes

And dreams

With a carrot

And beating us

With a stick. 

But who has searched

Can also see

That the box is opened

And the cat is free. 

The truth rises

And is evident

In the stars

Written out

Indelibly in our souls.

It will not work

Like they thought it would

As the clock ticks down

Do or die. 

They do their worst

But it will never be enough

Crushed in an hour

The great deceiving beast.
