Merciless Cruelty

Merciless cruelty is A mouthful of pain and a stomach gorged with flesh. The earth’s lungs falling for rapacious sustenance. Hearts burdened with the corpulent lard. Savage suffering of the innocent. Merciless cruelty is A morality tale unheard or ignored emanating disease. Contemptuous opulence of one above those afflicted. Karmic solutions from the atmosphere result. No regret perforates those minds. Merciless cruelty.

Most people I have known have a capacity to be cruel and manage to contriol it. This sounds like someone who cannot, or will not, or is just plain greedy.

We live in a world of corporate merciless cruelty and as it progresses we keep getting closer to chaos.
