The Machine is...2024 (Depressing Poem Warning)


The machine is  
Hungry for money
Thirsty for blood
 
The machine is  
The breathless immortal  
Sniffing at your door  
Screaming in the dark
 
The machine is
Born from the machine  
Heart frozen  
Soul washed  
 
Mowing forests  
Carving deserts  
Leaving pits of filth  
Toxic air  
Toxic sea  
Toxic land  
Toxic animals  
Belts of slaughter    
Under Poison rain  
Turning millions insane  
 
The machine is
The mechanical vampire  
Sucking on your fear
Draining time
 
The machine is
The bullet in the corpse  
The explosion on the street  
The cloud of blood dust
Hungry for money  
Thirsty for blood
