Retribution.

Underhand me, you underhand
yourself,
Backstabbing lies, accumulated
wealth,
Lost in time as karma takes you
down that line,
Too caught up in yourself to
read the blatant sign.

Wandered long enough to
know,
Whatever comes must also
go,
In line of sight for the
entire show.

Lost in illusions of
permanence,
Last stand of
selfishness,
Delusions of
convergence.

No more,
In the street bleeding
from every pore,
Just another eye
sore...
