.....

Sitting across the road
There are beings of a kind
They have a lot to say
A lot... For every passer-by
It might be a necklace
Or just a simple ring
It could be the attire
Or just some skin
Everything belongs to them
Everything they own
Nothing can miss their eyes
Nothing... Oh no...

They can leap forward
Or just pull the stuff away
They are what they are
Looking for a prey
They might be a handful
But allowed to simply rule
Someone spoke against them
Oh what a fool
You can’t feel safe
No not in your own skin
For they have a right on you
At least they think they do

No one dare stop them
No one can utter a cry
They’ll leer and bite
And ogle and tear
You can shout
You can plea
Even raise a cry
Try all you want
Oh go ahead please try
But let me give a little hint
How dare you frown
When they called you names

How dare you this
How dare you that
How dare you that
How dare you this
How... How... How...
This is all you’ll get
Be it a stranger or
Someone you know
Disguise is what you have
Something that’ll stay
This is what we've come to
This is what is human

If this is what is human
I am happy what I am
I am no man
Nor a woman either
No not an animal
Not a bird too
But I am here
Oh yes I am
You can’t see me
Can’t feel me either
But I am still here
Here to hunt you down
You won’t thrive now
I’ll burn you down
I’ll scrape every inch of you
You can’t run
Oh no not now...
