    People crouch in messy piles
    Attacked on all avenues of sorrow
    Whimpering words
    Their pride made them eat

    We are gluttons of pride
    Slurping it up in hungry laps
    Prancing about displaying fine threads
    Feeling a mighty farce

    Who understands the psychology of pity
    Twinges that take us back to humanity
    Unless your meter's broken
    Far too few repairs are made in our day

    Gold chains and Badges of their favorite bands
    Worn proudly on their sleeves
    Perfectly posed hair,eye contact,stature
    Twisted fascination in the mirror
    Blocks where the window goes

    Dancing wildly
    To a premeditated beat
    Music stops at the skin
    The hide has grown thick
    Under the spell of taking formation
    Into such a calloused individual

    Incidentely
    Past the glass is a flaming meadow
    Looming above are the clouds of apocolypse

    Like betrayed barnyard animals
    Intuition is no longer an option
    If you follow the procession
    You won't notice you're on fire
