Falafel, But No Hummus

Full of false courage,  this face you've mustered.

Blatant refusal to come outside.

Floating deep in bottled resentment,

Awake in this graveyard of dreams denied.

Seconds flee, and minutes charge, 

Carrying a carcass of wasted hours. 

A sorry sight for pitiless eyes, 

Remnants of time that Hate devoured.
