Human Pawns


Save them from the kratocracy
Who pave pathways  of pain
With fruitless detours
Travelling through borders
Struggling to survive.

Equivalence rendered meaningless
Desperation on a string
Vulnerability intensified
Compassion dead
As pawns precariously placed.

Decades of deceit
Governed by monsters
Pouncing like prejudicial panthers
Pounding their prey
With poison paws.

As gills of demons
Exhale their toxins
Polluting the oxygen
New antidotal measures
Must freshen the air.

Beyond chains of division
Games that people play
That leave many consumed
The cancer of power thwarted
Tenuous grip torn from the brink.
