Kit Kelen #787 - the gamble

787

the gamble 

 

see it fall to ruins

just the weather let in

voices come to me through it

in a steady-on of rain

time not telling there

PAST ARRESTED IN PYRAMID SLAVE CRIME
OTHERS' LANDS & GOODS UNJUSTLY SEIZED

and nevertheless an idea at the time

and lived to

speak the grievance

I'm building it all to wash away
I'm building it all to burn

till I'm the one in the far far

and better

then was atavist

a neck behind and get it in

so swim through the weather

swim through the drought

condemned to days

my tribe escaped to this

time not telling

play hard to get and you're gone
