awaiting the next dynamic pandemic
I look to those surviving with AIDS and think….
we need to start letting death run its course
why feed the starving
either abroad or on our very shores
when the writing on the wall
is clear
7 billion humans were never meant to be here –
Bird flu, swine cold, mutated viruses
all working with such diligence
and we…or should I say, our scientist
biochemists,
those bent on immortality
or at the very least, a healthy populace –
be ****** I say!
There is a reason people die en masse'
there is a need pestilence and disease
there is a definite place for mass suicides
and the systematic destruction of cultures and races
we simply don’t have the space
concern
or reserve of resources to facilitate
all of these mouths…
and there are more on the way –
so much energy in giving the gift of children
to those born barren
as if we know better than nature what needs to breed
I have seen the mountain top
and I have seen the other side
and people, most of you are dead
probably me too
as it should be –
