Dominguez

You wore progress like a clean shirt
While your hands stayed buried in the old blood
Every speech polished
Every order soaked

You talked about balance
Like it was math
Like bodies don’t scream when you stack them wrong
Like obedience isn’t just fear with better posture

I watched you stand in the ruin
Pretending history needed a manager
Like conquest ever cared about intent
Like genocide softens when you whisper it

You don’t believe in gods
You believe in control
In pressing the future flat
Until it stops resisting
Faith is just another lever
If you pull it hard enough

This city didn’t need saving
It needed to be left the fuck alone
Every wall already knew the cost
You just refused to listen

I followed the trail you left
Paperwork and shell casings
Promises taped over mass graves
You call it inevitability
I call it cowardice with structure

You said sacrifice was necessary
Funny how it’s never yours
Funny how leadership always stands
Just far enough from the blade

The people hid when you spoke
Not because they misunderstood
But because they understood perfectly
What order really means

You tried to cage the sun
Tried to own the dark
Tried to turn an ending
Into an asset

I don’t need to kill you
History already is
You’ll be remembered as a footnote
A man who mistook authority
For purpose

This place will outlive your voice
Outlast your plans
Outlast the idea that you mattered
At all

When the ruins finally settle
And the jungle seals the cracks
Your name won’t be cursed
Or praised

It’ll just be gone
Like it fucking deserves
