when the body is beaten
and the soul is forsaken
what remains to be spoken?
is it all a game of brain?
for the lonely hours of night
the brain went asleep but
not the soul, neither the body...
revenge, anger, and agony...
remained as an unspoken story!
monsters entered the body once
the soul reacted with remonstrance
but the brain remained deaf...
cruel, helpless, and worried of self...
borders remained unnegotiated proof
protest continues both in and out
but the brain speaks of hegel and kant
body is beaten, soul is forsaken...
no fear, no scream, and no words spoken...
center remains a timid skeleton
what will be the end of this game?
do hegel and kant know how to tame
the elevating power of the center?
brain smiles, but the body weeps with anger
and the soul shouts, 'its not a game; its a war!'
