Introspection
mass extinction
suicide and bondage
Not one of you were there...
I felt it, I saw it
I remember, I felt it all
Head of a human on a bed of lettuce...
placed strategically in the street
for all of us to see
Arms and legs strewn about
to remind
all of us to please stay away
Nests of ugly insects
swarms of plastic army men
holding their own
guts and body parts
together
for a while
until they can
not
hold it in
any longer
then
tired
placed strategically
for
mass extinction
of a whole
species
marked by
violent death
and me
left behind
feeling
everyone
else's
pain
