The wagon rattles and I hide in the hay,
Betrayal and bedlam on my breath.
A filthy ride to a broken prison,
Gateways and grandeur within my grasp.
Their prejudice and scorn soaking into my skin,
But everything is on the edge of emptiness.
I wait for my brothers to abandon me,
The spark of solidarity and slaughter.
My suffering is nothing new at all,
The maw waits and withholds and widens.
