Rephaim

Rephaim

We are the Rephaim.

Not greater than men

Yet different, somehow more.

We see more,

feel more deeply,

presenting problems

The masses would rather ignore.

Aborted abominations,

Born before our time,

Falling from the sky

And set on a path

to watch

to correct 

to teach

to lead.

Taking the weight of the world

On phantom shoulders

weakening and weary.

Half-bred alienation

That takes its toll

In separation

As we terrorize

and devastate

With concepts new and frightening.

We cannot

And will not change.

Nor will we apologize.
