The Truth About Humanity

 




Greed is the epidemic swallowing the world whole from within

Tender womb, soft pink flesh in the pull of mother's breath



Missing is the fetus floating inside the nest



Replaced instead by a pack of gnarly, slashing rats

Bleeding of the earth in an uncompromising wrath

Digging in the thin of skin


Cancer eating away in the form of a billion sentient beings

With freedom and a universe that supposedly bends to the will

Allowing the user to create reality of choosing


Yet war always wins

Greed is always

Stepping on the next man to reach a higher perch


Consumption is always falling into it's own wretched blackness

The scale of the world is having the powerful squeeze the

meat out of the very mouths of the weak


The decline is ever sharpening

The disease is ever multiplying

The natural resources burning away into nothing


You are the injection

Left here to eat away

All that is good
