What is it in the hearts of man
that presents a case to kill
to arm themselves
and leave their homes
and hope fresh blood to spill
burdened by the pressure’s of life,
perhaps their jobs
and decked out in their camouflage
they transgress into slobs
the 4×4 the ammo, the rifles and the bows
and if your name is Nugent
a machine gun,
I suppose
He’s a vile transgressor
the criminality
off to find the unwitting one’s
and offer tyranny
extremists call to action
most hold down mundane jobs
they clearly bore
the pants off
all the so called knobs
inflexible and arbitrary
its extortion of the poor
the downtrodden
they have to resist it all
and just ignore
a weekend away
from purgatory
a sort of agitator
who won’t be pigeon holed
an undisciplined creator
who feels
he’s being told
what to do
and what not to do
and he
defects in to the forests for
a way to be
he needs to find a victim
to overcome his fear
its his, dark compulsion
but its anything but clear
bludgeoned by the systems
compulsive is his thought
he cannot get his way at home
and at work too he is caught
when he hunts
he becomes the master
of his circumstances, he
can wait for half a day or more
and just kill instantly,
and gut it,
he’s the grand master
really so to say
when he goes back to his minions job
he doesn’t mind the pay
impotent, an inability to do anything
thats right
a failure, a castrato
an invalid worthless shite
thwarted by the system
undermined and lost
so the hunting with his powerless chums
is the maelstrom in which he’s tossed
his weakness means he cant stand up
to anyone
unless he’s hiding in the dark
to surprise them with his gun
neutralised by people but ready to accept
the killing of any animal
makes him more adept
he’s nothing but a vandal
ravaging on souls
the innocent the moderate
he’s one of the trolls
the animal fraternity
were born to allay fear
potential, they have potential
for with Mother Earth so near
they feel her hypnotic influence
and realize her worth
able to be sociable
its truly their rebirth
but helpless in the face of hunters
who prefer to crawl
hide all drenched in camouflage
and clearly off the wall
armed up to their eyes
sexually and honestly
rather fruitless guys
canned and trophy hunting
is the pleasure that
they seek
they can get their guarantee
its their torment of the week
they hand over their dollars
and the system does the rest
whatever they can afford to buy
that is their only test
their lives are in regression
disengaged they be
and in their heads I do suppose
a base reactionary
retreating from their normal life
a recidivist may be
who constantly fights his way
out of their paper bag to see
women now are being drawn
into this weird menagerie
they radiate successfulness
when of course they just must be
so downtrodden
the patriarchal system
has taken hold
and they are beaten black and blue
and left out in the cold
by circumstances of the day
its a kind of elevation
it lifts them for a while
even men share their salvation
so they do it and they pose with
larger animals and show
the futility of hunting
as they plunge down and they go
the Universe is watching
the gods are less amused
Nemesis is shaking at how
souls are abused
the mortality is growing
everyone’s confused
the slaying of the innocent
meet the tear drops of the bruised
as the vital sparks extinguished
and Summerland does call
all of that vitality
all goes to the wall
sacrificed for what
a photograph in some old tome
and the family steeped in misery
plucked out of their home
their insentience is fraught
with a narcosis
insensible, quiescent
and sadly so
totally uncaring
and almost never sharing
sooty unfit passages
below
which occupies their mind
obscurity and blackness
is all a soul can find
a mindlessness, a misama
uninvolved and underlined
aggression like a coil wound tightly
that sometimes we all find
it confounds the so called hunter
caught up, in his own trap
unpredictable behaviour
for what is a lonely sap
so gullible and senseless
they undervalue much
obstinate and embittered
and clearly out of touch
for them there’s no reality
their gullibility
precludes them from the
realization
they now can never free
themselves for they are robots
all frozen from the store
they do not have the where with all
they are the victims of their war
