silence, the snake

words stumble into tripwires
the machine starts to churn
igniting the core, finding fuel
the engine starts to burn

one by one they fall
dominos, broken on the wheel
shattered pieces of existence
too burned out to feel

those that hoped for justice and truth
are buried in the same earth
as the ones that wanted to burn
everything to the ground

when the whispers segue into screams
nightmares start ending the dreams
the trap of sleep is crushing strong
who cares what is right or wrong
