Indifference

" The height of inhumanity "


Indifference is not a form of love or hate
Certainly not a matter of loyalty or trust
A shapeless entity with tentacles not seen
That eats its victims up and spits them out
There is no compromise with an empty enemy
Lost in the storm of its own indulgences
There is no direction home with no foundation

The pinnacle of inhumanity towards others
Indifference retains the ugly name from its inception
Enveloped in evil by stone cold logic to the grave
Rushing headlong with pain and suffering caused
Into the depths of hell where it belongs
Remains another word forever lost
