But you are not human

Sat, 05/24/2014 - 11:50 -- me1418

Everyday I eat your flesh

I dress in your skin

I see you cry for help

But you are just an object

You satisfy my thirst

 

I ignore your suffering

The way you are treated

You are not human

You deserve a better treatment?

But you’re not Homo sapiens!

 

Your soul is not full of ambition

There is nothing in this world

You want more

Than run free, in the wild

 

That place they took from you

That place will become impure

Stained by the claws of the animal

That eats everything

And kills anything.
