fade

Twisted, we fade
dismembered agreements clouded by the desires of ambition, greed, and perfection
(dis)heartened by glamour and all
its accomplices that have implicitly
tied you down

For oh so long we
attempted to resuscitate
the dying space between us

Wilted
Weathered
Worn
We were once golden
And now bleakly brown

Forgotten
Faded
Farther
from the truth

That was once established
and honored in the most
revered and sacred ways

systemic contributions
inable to overcome the atrocities

that this
RAPE
has inflicted on our wor(l)d

Dismembered
I see you, we, me
fading and soon
forgotten
