Of Human Design

You've a black heart like a burnt up bridge. Twice as cold as Jeffrey Dahmer's fridge. Learnt lessons will dissipate, water boarded till the memories lapse. A free nation ate itself to death In the wake of the great collapse. When the doors of perception are nailed shut, the mind withers in atrophy. There's omens in the stars. A catcher in the rye. Enlightenment leads to Misanthropy. This violent development is bred from the seasons of hate. Spawn forth the daughters of whom drink from the skulls of fate. And it's treason on all counts. The blood we've spilt is not our own. Penetrate the host and infest it's belly to make it our warm home. This being of flesh is of a feeble kind. Numb, hungry, and curious... Of human design.
