Lies

Another lie
another promise
another tragedy
another type of pain
another shipwreck
another embarrassment
another death

and the joke is
it never happened
it was just a lie...

Oh goddess of forgiveness
wisdom and logic, Athena
how can a man be just
when
everything hammers
everyone steals
everyone nods in silence
everyone lies
everyone cries
and when you come to smile
everyone fucks you like an animal....

He is supposed to be 21 you know...
just 21...

The goddess stares back and replies...

"Because we could not find another way to get rid of him"
