WordPress Daily Prompt – Profuse
Have you ever stared into the mirror
Until you became shapes melding into objects of horror?
Eyes bleeding down into gums?
Ears running into veins?
Suddenly you realize,
We’re no more human
Than animal …
And maybe we’re far more terrifying
Because we know when we’re wrong
But we just don’t care.
Rather we stomp on through,
Dressed in profuse gold,
Declaring ourselves kings
Of land that was never ours …
And we just don’t care.
