"Too Late"    11 - 02 - 01



it's numb, so dull

this world, this hopeless hole

it's dead, it's thoughtless

this cold and useless corpse

it lived, once felt

the pains of this society

now ended it's own life

with the rusted, jagged knife

it lay on the floor

so silent, so serene

not even an hour again

it expressed, had some meaning

now that hour has past

the people surround, aghast

him, of all people,

who would have thought

but no one paid any attention

to his cries of help,
