allah's collar - Less

like the flea leaps from dog to dog

feeling thunder when the titan scratches

bite down and ride

monstrous voices i don’t understand

i might as well be comatose

flat line my future

smooth sailing makes me seasick

it’s no wonder i crave allah’s collar

like the leaf falls from the tree

becomes brittle its veins collapsing

turn brown and die

no one told me that this would happen

i defy my ignorance

my fatal embarrassment

i maintain my artifice

the filth crawls out from under allah’s collar

i carry this stink with me

everywhere just like a badge

constant source of distraction

pulling me away from allah’s collar
