AN EVOLUTION ECHO

Somewhere, somehow, a blackbird still sings
While thieves create rubble to rob
Bellies hollow, cruelty swollen
The glutted gorge and purge on stories of hate

While thieves create rubble to rob
Warriors are buried for unburying the truth
The glutted gorge and purge on stories of hate
Silence tastes like ash and iron

Warriors are buried for unburying the truth
Living souls in soft flesh the sole target
Silence tastes like ash and iron
Our evolution stunted

Living souls in soft flesh the sole target
Bellies hollow, cruelty swollen
Our evolution stunted
Somewhere, somehow, a blackbird still sings
