human hive the perception of ours has become obsolete, as the world slowly fractures and fades. we wronged our people, (we) consumed who they were. no important folks would save us. in need of protection we grieved and we begged. the lords in their temples, they listened. enslave us! we screamed, with blood in our throats. the time has come to repent. ties that bind together, servants of wealth, servants of trust. we will live forever, through serfdom and ash. we bred and we nourished generations of slaves. the masters reward us in coin. we work and we die, a function, a reason. no sense of autonomy. blood in our wells, dust in our lungs. we carry the shame to the grave. our time lost its worth as we carry on to live and to die in regress. aborted and sick, we march on to fail. our own species (is) crumbling. this system of slavery, fed by our breasts. is this the best we can do? no!
