J Lind - Demons

You've seen the movies
Breathtaking livestreams selling power and abuse
You've seen the best scenes
Silicone fantasies, they're better than the truth
And those documentaries that
Nobody wants to see
They've ruined cheeseburgers for you
For a little while
You've followed the pack
Lying on your back for the black and white and grey
You've found salvation
Fleeing temptation both by science and by faith
You've turned the other cheek
To flowing milk and honey sweet
In favor of kale and couscous
You cannot stand it
This demographic, it's too damn predictable
Trends pass as virtue
Sheep will not hurt you 'til you let them think they're wolves
Nausea and disgust pass as
Meaning and purpose as
The garden goes in and out of view
You misheard Jesus
Goodness and weakness are conflated all the time
If you cannot break laws
Then you do not have claws, and maybe that's the greater crime
So get off that highest horse
That seat is saved for men at war
Who require it to see enemy lines
To lead the herd to victory
Or off a cliff, into the sea
'Til demons have nowhere left to hide
For a little while
