Natural Progression (Joe Bogash, jr.)
War doesn't change
But maybe men can
Blood always runs
But wisdom rarely flows
Death can only be final
But experience can inspire the new
Art is dead
And I'm glad
Because once that's accepted
Maybe something better
Can be made from the old foundation
A wise man once said
The pen is mightier than the sword
His young apprentice heard this
And hired a mercenary to attack his master
Who's laughing now, old wise man?
Ha ha
The greater good is an excuse,
The greater good is a tool of the vile,
The greater good is a lie,
A justification, a falsification, and a weapon against the foolish
So the next time the greater good is thrown at you,
What will you choose to hear?
The next time you sleep,
Imagine this,
When you sleep,
You die,
And someone else wakes up,
Thinking they are you.
Good night.
