Pain not on the Wane


                   Pain not on the wane

Oh, pain now, but more pain not on the wane
 Efforts in vain, but more for bane
Stifling the voices sane, but more for infamous fame
Anger not tamed, but more for excuses lame
Playing games, but more for breaking window panes
Aimless your aim, but more for vain and bloody games
Blood in the veins, but more for efforts only in name
How big your name, alas! For only terrible shame.
