The Curse of Plurality

What is my heart? What is my mind?
O reckless injustice! How powerful you are...
The bond of corruption, of indebted favors
The power of obligated allegiance, of inherited evil
What strength there is in lies and deception
The modification of one heart is all that I ask of thee
Perhaps one will topple the hierarchy of hatred
Have you no sympathy? Have you humanity?
Upon your fingertips all else is determined
Yet your irresponsibility renders you incapable
Am I to join the pantheon of evildoers?
Where am I to stand and preserve?

What is my heart? What is my mind?
Have you no sense lost clan?
For how long can you run in circles?
How long can you question all that surrounds you
Yet still not know truth? Must you be fed?
How am I to tell thee and when? Is it my duty?
Where is the ground of commonality? Of similarity?
How am I to share if there is no ear to hear?

What is my heart? What is my mind?
How dare you think you are welcome....
Sickness, poverty, pain, death is all that you bring
How may I help you? What more can one man do?
How am I to handle all that you bring to the table?
The weight of your curse is too much
I am overwhelmed, yet love and kindess prevail, but how?

Where is my heart?......
