Open

you can
continue
to close your eyes

I will open mine
and see
death,
destruction,
youth slightly decaying,
the old being forgotten

Losing the religion
we were raised with
that condemned us to hell
for breathing
for dying
for loving

Greed has
turned this place
ugly
desolate
and desperate

They sell us
puppies
babies
sex

Then they say
its our
parents fault
we turned out this way
