humanity’s great at ignoring ****** abuse, assault, and **** but when it happens again, humanity’s mouth is agape humanity’s great at calling girls ****** and ***** and disregarding people’s burns and cuts humanity’s great at sneering at lesbians and gays and watching people starve themselves for days humanity’s great at letting kids use drugs as an escape and ignoring all the overdoses that are about to take shape humanity’s great at ridiculing masculine girls and feminine boys and playing with people’s minds as if they are mere toys humanity’s great at starting wars over religion and race thinking that violence will put people in their place humanity fights all its battles with no mercy or grace and when humanity realizes his mistake don’t expect him to show his face expect nothing but for him to plead his case and his excuse is that everyone but him is an utter disgrace humanity’s great at denying people their rights humanity’s even better at reading people their last rites humanity’s the best at acting like nothing’s wrong humanity’s the best at playing along when really everything around him is falling apart but don’t you know, humanity has no heart
