It's amazing that the beauty in humanity can be so destroyed
We often forget that the monsters of history were people

I speak for all of us
Because I'm pretty sure we've all thought it.

I watched Triumph des Willens
I'm still disgusted by the monstrosity
But I realized the humanity
The sole goodness
That can be so twisted
So corrupted
Serpents can swallow the body
And we just let them, and claim it was us
No serpents, just us

I gotta disagree.
Humanity is beautiful.
Created beautiful, and made for beautiful things.
But we can allow *******; we, alone, allow serpents.
