doth rage make me whole?
the anger I repress,
the distate I forget
does my repression make me less?

the blind eyes I turn,
and the things I forget,
the feelings that I drown out,
doth forgiveness make us whole?

the ends I seek,
and the means I revere
they bring no happiness,
a state craft
built on crafted idols,
do false promises allow us to be whole?

the pity I despise,
and the avoidance I crave,
of my inner self,
it seems to me
that the monsters I fear
are the monsters I see in me,
doth the monsters make me whole?
