The Only Animal God Doesn'T Love

It laughed back--
   Craven beast in need of feeding
Feasting--fleeting feeling...
  Hungry fangs gnashed...they gnawed
Mashed and clawed...flaying flesh in a pool of cess
    Washed down with milk from breast
Habitual inkling to kill things
 Waiting not to mate until spring
Impetuous creature defies phylum-
 defines asylum...sickening, spontaneous species
    flings feces-howls at the moon

Cage can't contain, nature won't explain
  this beasts absence in a chain
Contributes to no cycle-rips, maims
  claims habitat at a laundry-mat
Missing link makes cousins of apes
  murder, molests, rapes...
Filthy wraith bathes in hate

    
  Made in a higher likeness
God must spite this human"itus"...


Inspired by Kristen Reynolds "March Madness"

William Masonis February 26, 2009 at 6:15 PM Very nice madness there! Wish I could do so well at that sorta thing. Thanks for the recent comment; and yeah, it had everything to do with that Skull n' Bones crowd Dubya ran with. There even seems to be some evidence that his Great-Uncle was personally involved in this unholy theivery. Best Regards.
