So It Goes
by Rorschach· from Remain Sedate
Impervious to horror
Abstinence seen as an illusion
Chain-link armor
Impeded on by an unknown force
Pain
Pain
We are all products
Of our environment
Entrapped
Unable to decide
Yet we sit back
On our collective heels
And go along for the ride
Driven by contempt
In a quagmire of lies
Forced to consent
Until one dies
Thwarted attempts
To a longer life
Recourse stems
From infinite tries
So it goes
