New World Holocaust

a new machine

blood greases the wheels

new technology

sucked from human need

friends turn to enemies

it’s the nature of the beast

love and hate bond

and the outcome is the same

a wretched leach

blood sucking w***e

no gender or race

just a lonely parasite

a capsule of hurt

negative dust fragments

genetic embryo

implanted within

plush surroundings

a chemical compound

feeding on the heart

and sold on the black market

to the highest bidder

bliss sold on tap

an infectious fever

that leaves you barren

ask yourself truly

is it worth the cost

to be a simple mark

in a new world holocaust

This is powerfully written. Some momentary pleasures have hidden costs that can be hard to foresee.
