until we tried to struggle free
we couldn't name our native state
the charnel house they made
the charnel house they made to show
how we were living out the fate
for which we'd bought and paid
for which we'd paid in mindlessness
and taken steps to palliate
and then from there to fade
and then from there to fade so much
to lack the mark of a livid wait
from which one could be saved
