An entomological war crime,
Completely and utterly by design.
Its form, symmetric and aerodynamic,
A jet, dominating the sky,
Apathetic as it wages its war.
Its finish, iridescent and glaring,
A bullet, fired from the barrel of life,
Indiscriminate as it slaughters its prey.
Its methods, efficient and precise,
A computer, indifferent,
Uncaring as its genocides are enacted.
There exists no elegance in the eyes of the dragonfly.
There is only violence.
Yet we overlook this.
We see the beauty in the symmetry,
in the iridescence,
in the efficiency.
We hear the engines roar
And the bullets fire
And the genocides unfold
And we bask in the perceived allure
Of a machine,
Designed to ****
It is fascinating the extent of our interest into things
We vow never to become.
