Ni el gato se enterara


Wake up!
Get in touch with reality and weep
Clean your heads
take fresh air
you are in this whether you want to or not
destruction is coming
no matter what you do
it will come
it will start in the outskirts
and soon will spread like disease
affecting all the states surrounding you
arriving at your home
taking you and your loved ones hostages
wake up, I say!
Weep like a young virgin dressed in black,
mourning the loss of her fiancé
you will think you have gone color blind;
grass will lose its green pasture color
trees won't stand up tall and brown
flowers won't flourish with kindness and sweet colors
the animals won't follow the food chain
there will disorganization where you look
your property will be dull and empty
everything gray and black
the sun won't shine in the day
neither will the moon be your companion at night
darkness will fill every inch of space
it will invade your house, your most private moment
those that were playing house and dolls
pretending to be so called priests and holy
those who knew the "sacred word" inside and out
will scream from fear
but their cries will reach deaf ears
for their instructions and enlightenment
were all empty with no true guidance from above
just misguided, selfish, supercilious thoughts;
just echoes off their hearts.
No one gets to flee from this,
everyone will see this,
but few will notice it
for this will creep in like the sun's rays through your window in the morning
It won't be slapped upon your face,
it won't burn and there won't be alarms warning you of this
but it will be like a cancerous tumor
growing inside you, little by little
no PET or MRI scans will pick it up
soon almost every person will have the same side-effects
it will continue to grow with no one and nothing stopping it
it will be normal, it will be the way to live
it will be the way people are, the way the world has changed.
No one will ask for a cure,
for its no longer a cancerous tumor
it's just part of the human body, it's part of us all.
no questions asked, no questions to answer
those few that will speak and ask how to fix this disease will be looked at as demented
shut off from the "community", put on the "untouchable" list
no one will speak to them, no one will hear them
these few misfits will see how everyone dies off silently around them
and no one wonders when was it that our eyes got used to living in the dark,
how there's nothing beating in their left breast,
how the blood that once fervently flowed inside our bodies
no longer makes us alive.
No one will notice that
man and freedom are two words
that are extinct.
