The Spectacle

Sold Time, Souls Bought

The Spectacle


day after day after days 
in year after year after years 
of lacking sleep, getting up, straight in line 
a severed life 
not in pain, not in anguish 
in nothingness, mediocrity 
they cut off our limbs and we sold them our souls 

these are not days of joy 

hour after hour watching the clokc ticking our lives away 
week after week, month after month 
listening to the beat from an unseen drum 
taking commands from a silent hum 
no beating, no abuse, it's still torture 

these are not days of joy 

did you have a plesant day today?
