Rage Against The Machine©

One innocent moment becomes an act of violence

Because perception or intent is unclear

One side faults the other

One acts in fear and the other acts impulsively

Too often the innocent die

The guilty go free

Rage mounts

The desire for retaliation must be realized

Not realizing that only ends in more violence

and unnecessary destruction

This man-made fiasco is none other than

The rage against the machine

Which is well oiled and can’t seem to stop churning

Somehow we must work together to break down this machine

Before its casualties become insurmountable

As they are already without true purpose

For revenge is blinding
