    Harvester of sorrow 2-3-07

     A wise man once said 
    "To every time there is a season"

    Tis the season
    Gather in your crop
    store it away safe within your human silos
    so that it will ripen properly with time
    ferment, distill

    Celebrate the bounty of your harvest
    let the field be
    time to rest and refresh itself
    through the long cold winter of the soul

    So that with spring will come new hope for tomorrow
    hope of the promise of new life
    something for you to feed upon after the slaughter

    Turn the soil
    plant your seeds
    fertilize with your mixture of rejection,neglect and indifference
    mental and verbal abuse, psychological torment

    Then watch as the seeds of loneliness, despair and pain take root
    let the field water itself with a mothers tears
    be patient,trust in the process

    Behold
    a new harvest of anger, violence,hate and revenge
    you have done well
    the reaper will be pleased with you 
    and your prison farm.
