What cowardly creatures we are

Hiding behind walls of

Deceit

And facades of

Contentment

To lead the wandering eye

To a simpler conclusion -

That we've possession of the pieces

And held them together

So as to keep prim and proper

Amongst bared teeth and

Elongated claws

Because though we are

Weaker than they think

The mind is so easily tricked

Into false judgment and

Pretty lies

So we'll be able tell ourselves we'll

Be okay
