Tears For Humanity

Society's pit I fell into so seemingly familiar to my life
While distraught and exhausted from the effort of the struggle to get above ground
Yet they mock at the claw marks on the wall of dirt
as I angrily spit on the ground and shout
"to hell with humanity!"
and then I cry for I am human and involved with the mess myself
