Poem No. 2

Greengrass fire to concrete utopia
Brought up in previous irrelevance
On her birthday, she got a label maker
"We always knew," they lied again
Hypocrisy overpowers the universe
Providing words of untruth
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Mentally-caged humanity counts to one
"Help me, my darling"
Lost in the monotonous desert
For all eternity
Or never
