Humanity

They move with a groan
Clanking together
An endless drone
That dosen't know better

One and the same
Blank sheets of paper
So frightfully tame
A lingering vapor

They watch and whisper
A low chilling hum
Movements get crisper
No one tells you to run

For people don't help
They only feed
No use to yelp
They love when you bleed

Once these souls cared
Love lingered around us
Now the truth's bared
Even babes cuss

For these living dead
With pits for eyes
Care not for eachother
Only for demise.

Dark and pessimistic. People really are dangerous, aren't they?

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
