THE VICTIM
by J. R. Hyland

Behind the mask of every face
a victim dwells;
Secure beneath the luxury
of gain from greed
That others see.

Behind the mask of every face
a victim dwells;
Secure beneath the luxury
of self defeat
That others see.

Behind the mask of every face
a victim dwells;
Absolving self, continuously,
of all
Responsibility.
