A Poem by delapruch

multiple millennia reduced to

centuries, centuries reduced to

decades & a period of decades

making up the life of one

completely random, accidental,

insignificant & meaningless

life, found on one planet in a

galaxy, in a universe of which it is

only an infinitesimally small

speck, a stain on the passage of

the miniscule history of this

species.

 

born beneath a sun,

like absolutely everyone else---

later said to be a “sign,”

a “sign”

later to be described as “bad”---

found down the river

in the depths of the city

amidst the pollution & rats---

the mother told the father &

the father left when he heard.

 

now, many a psychiatrist will say

that the abandonment of the father

early on, would promote down the line

an individual who is constantly devoid

of trust for another human being,

that is, being loved in such a manner

that one might develop such a

relation with said individual is an

impossibility &

many a shrink will determine this to

be the case even more, when both

parents bail on said child, but

mother could not afford to raise

this kid on her own, despite whatever

other reasons might have existed at

the time.

 

large gaps &

plot holes make up the

formative years, the childhood, the

teenage chaos & the early

adulthood, but the important

thing is that the world was not

kind to this little speck, this

little conglomerate of

stardust.

 

an absence of kindness does not

always force one to “take the

higher road”---though society

may want this to be the case,

many differ when it comes to

the opinion that the best way to

deal with a life not asked for,

is to show compassion for those

that beat on you, that rape you,

that beat on you again,

that put you through intense

physical torture, humiliate you,

pass you off like garbage from

institution to institution & take

no responsibility for the wreckage

that your body & mind become

as a direct result of this occurring.

 

damage takes on a human face &

depending on the charisma that

evolution has shed upon this specific

human in this specific time, s/he

may sink to the depths of submission,

taking all the wrongs done to them

out on themselves, inevitably ending

in suicide---where a small, punctual

moment of the earth shattering may

touch the few people that even knew

this damaged individual existed,

as the candle quickly extinguishes

without a sound---

however,

s/he may be dealt a charisma that fills

the room with hypnotic rage, the kind

which can stir the masses, the kind

which can relate the experiences of

one to the many & with that hold, with

that unmatchable power, s/he may

be able to encourage the rise of violence

not yet measured by any scale---s/he

may bring others to do their bidding

by sheer implanted thoughts, s/he may

personally destroy others one by one

as well, always getting help by those

that will claim later to “have known no

better.”

 

as to this date, no one individual, no

group of individuals & no nation of

individuals has been responsible for the

elimination of all the species---books &

movies are spit out repeatedly concerning

those who have come close, but such

a story is as random as a supposed “saint”

arising---such compassionate people that

inspire love & trust (things denied to so

many others) seem to roar atop the buildings &

mountains, echoing down the streets---

their stories are told in desperate hope

made by those humans enjoying the rewards,

so as to drown out those that reveal the very

essence of what it is to be on the neglected

side of this history of “culture” & “progress.”

 

when the neglected consider causing

damage to everything, to everyone, to

all things animate & inanimate, to access

all the anger bred by constant pain

bestowed on them & to focus that

rage in a deliberate manner towards the

rest of the species who will continue to claim

until their dying day that the fault of all the

wrongdoing to one is the responsibility of

that same individual,

then it is those that neglect, cause harm

(without conscience), who reap the happy

smiles on earth & who do not think about

the ramifications that it has on others who

will no doubt be the first to want to lock

away any such people, to kill such people,

to anesthetize such people & stop such a

change in the scheme of things from

happening---as it always has been---but

damage will not go away when it is

addressed in such an unsavory manner,

rather, it will multiply, it will strengthen

from within & it will be ready when

the reapers of the earth are at their

weakest, like a wild cat watching its

prey, limping in the forest.

 

with a indiscriminate wrath more

complete than anything imagined by

the most horrific of “god” conjurers,

slashing, tearing, claws, throw the

whole big rock off its balance,

flushing away all remnants of a

selfish & sick species whose time’s

long been calling.
