diamond white versus charcoal black
a thousand faceless souls worth less than one soulless face
this is our daily standard

and it makes me sick to my stomach
forgetting all we have learnt
this is a new dawn

the birth of things to come
something has got to give and this time I think it should be you
as you sit there mouth agape

shocked by this pixelated distant reality
the press of a button to erase them all
the fecal pacifier in the mouth of the drooling infant

I won't swallow this %#@!
mere dollars for the fortune teller
to tell them they are worthless

but given the chance
for less I will give them a gun and your signed confession
uh oh, looks like you are %#@! out of luck
