A Rage of Tears
A Rage of TearsBy
Jamil Barnes
You hear the jungle creed of teens that bleed, for a fulfilled
life with no hope. Where young girls cry because they waste
their lives holding on to hopeless jokes. Where howling beastsdevour their feast and destroy the little ones souls. Where
Junkies cringe-on-a-can-heat binge and find their graves in the
Snow. O cry out, cry out, from what closet do these things
Come, bringing rebellious confusion and a hopeless tongue.
where dreams are made and dreams may go, conceive by heroin
and others such as coke. For the dreams that I had which will
never last my eyes still hunger for more. Where sex appeal strike,
and devours the lives, and destroy every man soul. For you hear
the shouts of the in crowd roaring like thunder saying come along
knowing in your heart that you’re not one of them.
