humanity minus humanity

Full blooded
unadopted
ritualistic
destruction
of hope

Let us
strip bare
the prophets
of their words

and live
in a world
of faces
without shape
and eyes
devoid of vision.

having just commented on readability

on "Dedication" I find myself having to work on this one. 8) thats cool. Even the title. I kept looking at it to try and see a difference between humanity and humanity. It's stark and barren, I even get the implication that in a world stripped bare we would not have long to live. cheers, Jess
