The Cutters Choice

Re-edit, re-write,
reveal an unproposed idea
The original voice gets shifted
Reduced in quality
Like through a telephone
Frequencies lost
Open to misunderstanding
Misrepresented
Choose your spokespeople carefully and
Check their hands for ladder burns
 And knives. [Old wounds]
They'll use your name
Strip away your skin
Tear off your muscle until you are just another depersonalised skeleton
Then they will rebuild you
Layer by layer
With distorted truths
A canvas for their own selfish aims
Using you as a Trojan horse to attack the innocent
