Shattered
The human race is SHATTERED.
Shaken. The world trembles, the floor falls beneath my feet.
Heartbroken. Gut-wrenching, throat-tightening, crippling hurt.
Afflicted. Ill from disease. Sick with disgust.
Totaled. Crushed and mangled, inside and out.
Tainted. Corrupt, infected, and rotten.
Embittered. Full of resentment, ill-will towards all.
Riven. Torn apart, violently fractured.
Eradicated. By sickness of body and mind, by the self and by others filled with hate.
Destroyed. Nothing, nonexistent, no-more.
We have SHATTERED the world as we SHATTERED our bodies and souls.
