Humans -- what a pitiful, parasitic species That has infected this planet like a Greedy, virulent virus consuming everything In its path with no remorse, no reservations. All humans have a rotten core oozing toxic Sentiments that engender chaos and destruction. I’m surrounded by hypocrites with no Knowledge of the word altruism, blinded by Their oversized egos and insatiable appetites For superficial and fleeting pleasures. There is no hope for remedy; progress is an illusion, Where the only certainty is our imminent extinction. Civilization was a mistake. We were better off as cavemen.   Humans ask me if I hate humanity so much, Why haven’t I killed myself already? Stupid humans. Humans suggest that rather than lament, I should be the light amid the gloom. Stupid humans. I'm allergic to futility.

Grievances of the Misanthrope
