The Laser for the Kings

by Starluck, Scorpio - Not entered

It’s a laser for the kings
It’s the shallow end of the grave
It’s the way they come and go so quickly
And leave the bullet in your brain
But they don’t bother to answer
They’ll never cease to shut their mouths
And when you walk upon their streets
They’ll go burning down your house
Some call this irony
I call it everything but faith
Some call it destiny
I think that word has lost its place
Give them all you’ve worked for
They’ll pay you back with beams of crimson light
They’ll send your children off to war
With their eyes blind into the fight
For this laser for the kings
For the shallow end of the grave
Soon it’ll all come and go quickly
Leaving the bullet in your brain
Don’t push your luck with me
Stop touching me with steel
Don’t put me in your vice
I don’t call your faces real

Reason for writing:

    I was oringally going to write a story, but
it came out so much better as a poem.
