Grinded down night and day
A railroaded practice to serve the greater public
To provide another body in the casket of consciousness
An acceptance of a failed jurisprudence
And the off chance we deliver the civic duty to bear witness to our collective
mistakes
Where every footstep was laid
With pride and persistence
And that whimsical notion of dedication
I never knew
I never heard of anything so cruel
I never read in history
Of anything so cruel
