Unrest

It appears so clearly
The darkened son was right all along.
We cannot handle the noise
we fall and fall and fall.
The option to numb
Seems right to me.
I am burned and tired
Ready to succumb.
A great war for what,
reason and pain?
What fools of glory
Will do to attain.
My 5 senses I plea!
Make no sense to me.
I revert to stand
but fall and fall and fall
The long black cord tightens
Then Hisses his name.
Cinches up his pleasures and thoughts
My body; the game.
