History is Everyone’s Fuck

You disguised your intentions and it bought you time
Forming tactics in your mind
Questioned direction so you invested in mine
Always watching from behind
Always angles in your eyes
Your lack of discretion is what made your bed
Kissing up to move ahead
I applaud your ambition but let it also be said
I’ll applaud when you’re dead
(It’s the ones we love that we hurt the most)
Gifted…
A talent for creation and rage
Never content with what you’ve made
A perpetuating feeling of shame
Given the victims you’ve collected it’s plain
That you are morally insane
You are predatory, selfish and vain
Gentle and patient
Affectatious
You come
Threading a flower through the gun
While your other hand erases the sun
Gentrification
Smallpox blankets
You’ve won
Witness the horror you’ve become
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to love
Someone other than yourself
