We are the Triggers

  

It figures, it just figures

the Trigger that aims the hand

that holds our world as hostage

to its own snaps of reason

proclaims Its innocence!

...Personifies the weapon:

"There, there, lies the One that did it!"

By tradition we are all

perpetually hunted,

hunted by our discomfort

yet figure ourselves Hunters

of the entire Dominion

...seen for us to rape, plunder

But not by Everyone, no,

just for a selected few

unjustified Successes;

for these now, or that there, or

say with hard-enough work

...or by one lottery-stroke: 

"some nobody just like you!"

Cause sorry there's not a lot

to be had for us at all;

it's no wonder some latch off 

uncontrolled at friend or foe

under overwhelming stress

...targeted and trapped like It

Plain folks in lines of fire

each of us a simile

as the ever loaded Gun,

one step closer, and closer,

to firing our bullets

...reactive Triggers that we are
