Inhumane

They stalk on by
Eyes not seeing
Minds not working

Filled with lies
Souls not being
Limbs just jerking

This world we built
It's destroying itself
Yet there's no guilt
No question for help

Selfish and greedy
Each creature a fool
Acting all needy
Each being a tool

They saunter right through
Person never showing
Meaning never displaying

Knowing nothing they knew
Thoughts never growing
Mindlessly obeying

A being so simple
Trying to be complex
Their lives on a gripple
Feeding off of sex

Knowledge is one
Smugness another
When the day is done
They kill one another

Moving along
Never quite registering
Not quite believing

Do they realize what's wrong?
That their life's on a string?
That there's no point in grieving...

A silly creation
That's all humans are
Not sensing sensation
They'll never get far

Mindless and stupid
Nothing is real
With a pace so rapid
They all burn their heels

THIS IS IT!! This is exactly what this idiotic world has become! I adore this poem to no end. Finally someone gets it, someone sees what's happening to our minds, our souls.

You, my friend, are a genius.
Talk to me anytime.
