Need we?

“Beneath these stones still stirs the ancient bones of those who wouldn't bow.”

June 14, 2025 3 min read Poetry

Need we tell anyone?howthe cities have chewed their children,and poets have sold their tongues;humaneness is crushed to bones,for bread that feels like thorns

Need we tell anyone?howearth has swallowed all the kingsleaving their crowns to rot,where worms debated justicein their hollowed ribs.

Blind follows blind.In the market of glossy lies,truth hooked like butchered meat;freedom measured in rusted scales.

They call rebellion madness,and named it a sin,but madness has roots,that can split the stones.

Beneath these stonesstill stirs the ancient bonesof those who wouldn't bow.

Need we tell anyone?Needn't, need we?
