Sulfer shame

Strike the match
Sulfur shame
Parasite
Or policy?

I read your poem
You see it too

The terrible passions
We leash
Beneath dark suiting.

Was I bought
So cheaply?
Illusions of hope
Cruel optimisms
That flay

Each night
Inspecting
Skin turned hard
Cell by cell
Transformed
To monster

Service standards
Productivity
Petty powers
Tattered garments
Tinder lite/light
