This is the Business.
No one walks away
Once they step inside.
The only way to
Leave is to be
Either killed or
Exiled into false hope,
And then killed.
For those who
Choose to stay,
It is kill
Or be killed.
It's a harsh life,
One filled with
Bloody, brutal humanity,
And cold, ruthless
Numbers,
Logistics,
And statistics.
The Business is
A nasty thing.
It sucks the life out of
Everything it sees.
So unless you plan
To give your
Life to it,
Stay as far from it
As you can.
Don't even chance a
Glance in it's direction,
Lest you be
Dragged into it
Kicking and screaming.
Once you're in
The Business
There's no going back.
Your fate is forever
Linked to it
Until you are
Fatally released.
Even the dabblers
Know this much.
This is the Business,
Brutal,
Bloody,
Deadly.
This is the Business,
You have been warned...
So I finally got my hands on an internet connection. (YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!) It doesn't happen very often anymore. It's rather irritating because now I can't read stuff on Wattpad very often anymore. I'm surprised I'm not sitting in a corner going "b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b" by this point. Seriously.
Oh well, I'll survive. (Maybe...)
Till next time!
(Whenever that happens to be...)
