Humankind

We imprisoned ourselves, then we complained,
The lack of freedom,we didnt expect it to stay,
Now we can slightly imagine, how they feel everyday,
Their whole lives spent enslaved, 
Never seeing the light of day,
From the moment they are born,
Used, abused, bred until they can't anymore,
When they are of no more use to us human scum, 
Then we dispose of them, empathy not involved at all,
We deserve what is happening today,
We deserve a lot worse,
Humans,
Are the only virus on this earth...
