flee

Caught up ...in this maze

No way out, but to travel ... another way

Wolves circling our doors ...howling at us

Hoping for us ...to do the work

Divide ...and conquer

Because, together ...we are strong

Individually

You might be hard

Of will...

So outside they gather

Collectively

Even the strong

Can be brought down

As each one ...hit

Weakens

Your wall of resistance

Till your best shot

Bounces harmlessly

Off the wall...

Into empty space  

They all know

Their persistence ...will pay off

Criminal elements closing in

For the kill…

If they don’t get you

Fear will

They

Tell you

Convert or

Die

Who are you

Going

To be…

It’s the moment of truth

Time

To decide…

Realize

Your branch

Of the family tree

Might just

Begin with you

Or…

End  â€¦without you

No such thing as a free ride…

Despite what you might

Be led to believe

When you

Are divided

As a community

Love is

All but lost…

What’s it going to be

Its time…

Now

For your last shot…

Aim well

 

Now...

 

Stand and fight

Or flee…
