It delves into the themes of physical and mental torment, identity suppression, religious manipulation, and the voicelessness of the oppressed.

Body,

Torments as if it’s ageless and yet demeaning, for every dirty work is solemnly exterminated from the core working schemas

Identity,

Fixiates and fixates to form a thread continuum of nonmobile hierarchies, to structure ravaging ideologues progressing to only exist as exploitation

Religion,

Acting as an Opium for masses of nevertheless entered outer lands, creating utopia and surrealism for the elite and whisker class

Actions,

Unabated, born and bred to suffer, with decapitated limbs in past, present, and future, and everything transgressing each of these entities for a succumbed one

Voice,

Nocturnal and broken, having no heed to go and on and fight simultaneous battles for rights, freedom, and liberation

Men,

Ordained in captivity with no manhood to protect, and tame the lion and the elephant to make them circus worthy, of bountiful entertainment

Women,

Pushed to the misery of mind and soul, traumatized by the continuous penetration by not rustic primordial devils entering beyond her physical

Children,

Tooth and nail broken, to teach lessons and lessons of unforeseen tragedies, to whisper broken hands and legs, to create a lineage of suppression and misery

Society,

A conditioned collection of captivated people meant to work to not bifurcate day and night, with men no manhood, women left to die of underweight bodies

Personalities,

Strangely created to a whiff of a bad mystery, of sunken dreams and iron spilled oceans, of fuel interspersing and turning it dark, yet wholesome with the eye glaze and pupil shine.

For tragedies are the demons of tomorrow

Of people conditioned to play bait

If at all the sorrows lay in a slate

Its the man of a kind who ruthlessly perseveres to dominate

Of childlike innocence to face the mighty demon

Of trying to raise their voice against lifelong persecution

Like their noses snubbed in the quaternary year-long cycle

Travel amidst fog to reach a destination

Fog of rules, religion, and enforcement laws

To keep you as a dog, puppy, pet, or an animal

Not to turn you anything fiercer than normal

To continue your unmatched actions of being abnormal

Rise the workers Rise…

A being cries, breaking the cycle, amidst gasping for air

Meet workers meet…

The tunes went transversing and blended with particulate matter

Gather workers Gather…

Connect east, south, west, and northern fringes

Arm Workers Arm…

Masses protrude out of the bubble with axes, sickles, and hammers

Explain exploiters Explain…

To protest and ask for their life and lost generations to a sinking mankind

Suffer exploiters suffer…

The masters couldn’t leave and waited for their flesh to rot and beaten

Sacrifice Goddess of Justice Sacrifice…

The cunning red woman came and fed on the infested grouping

Kill Goddess Kill…

With tubeworms and tapeworms lurking in their deranged intestines.

Remove Goddess Remove…

The holy unfathomable charts their territory, and the red woman defecates the remains out in the open.
