The innocent prey of tyranny
flock and veil beneath statues
of fraudulent liberty in lands of untold slavery.
They try to find themselves in the emptiness
of ellis isle but their attempts at redefinition
were nothing more than metaphor.
Hollow eyes bare desperation
and blighted hope for preconceived freedom.
The soil of so called aspiration was their only reward.
