Family (poem)

Poetry

Atomistic nucleus,
Sealed tight against the world.
Cultivate a cult,
Paternal god as its leader.

Inculcate your values,
Carve impressions in minds.
Tear down and build up,
Constructed in your image.

Birthed out to the world,
Foreign figures encroaching.
Defending the village,
Against invasions of thought.

The entire world,
Our household.
Every living being,
Our family.

Piety (poem)

Poetry

Guised as a virtue,
Tenets for control.
Forced to live,
Eternally enslaved.

Respect your captors,
Compassionate creators.
Selfless beings need servants,
Failed dreams thrust upon them.

Carry their burdens,
Serve them your flesh.
Disappointment embedded,
In the blade by your neck.

Disowned and disrespected,
Unfilial swine.
Kin no longer,
Dependent bloodlines severed.
