They’re happily burning virtue’s entrails: A poem 

The murderous men who have forsaken their wombs 

They speak in fork-tongued shades that inflict wounds 

How the world is losing, losing itself in repeated stages 

Everybody is a butterfly, drying up between pages 

You take the road down and you can’t voluntarily turn around 

If you believe in yourself, you are bound to get a frown 

They are after your free will like a pack of hungry hounds 

Anyone with the gumption, may be unfairly labeled unsound 

If you call democracy freedom, you are mistaken by the choice 

The ones who wish to lead you, are a bunch of nasty boys 

You are silent-sheepish as a cog, you’ve lost your voice 

It is propaganda’s huge wheel that is making all the noise 

The withered old woman is sadly reminiscing all her tales 

of spirit, nature, generosity, and virtue larger than whales 

O Alas! The woman has broken down suddenly on the rails! 

And the wicked men are beginning to gleefully burn her entrails

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
