Deconstructing the american dream (Free verse) by Nice guy
No. I will not.
It does not suit my blood
or my bloodlines, any longer.
For centuries you have demanded
fatigue, while you grin
in your faux skin.
"You made the choice"
Then I will un-choose,
and herald your collapse!
Your trinkets
can never, will never, have never
sheltered me, myself or I.
Fighting, while backed into a corner,
has proven a lesson in futility.
Now, I will walk away in silence,
leaving my message
of absence.
