When the Dust Settles
When the dust settles,
 And the rain stops
 These ants go back to work
 Protecting the queen from all the mean,
 This world may present
 When the walls crumble they move for her whim
 But a dictator at heart, she tosses her dead with the trash
 Because that is all they are
 Meaningless drones sent to protect the throne
 No government cares for you or me 
 We are but worthy of mass graves and feces-soiled soil
 Trash; for they have the power. 
 What are a few among many?
 Life goes on, as you and me are stored away,
  As just a cog in their scheme
 Their leadership uses you until you are of use no longer
 Then they throw you away- like garbage 
 For what are a few among many?
 Unless you possess royal blood
 You will have no grandeur 
 You will be forgotten- in the grand scheme of things
 They have all the power for all of your work
 When the dust settles
 They go on saying, “What are a few among many?”
