In general it is my very cynical outlook on many facets of life.
Replaceable
Take me back
Trade me in
And
Take that instead
Forget me
Everyone is valued
For next to nothing
Self-worth
Just that
Only self
Recognizes worth
Objects of depth
Meet the need
For replacement
By what?
Less of a mind
Lack of free thought
Without opinion
No visible emotion
Follows the leader
Blindly through hell
And back
Not realizing
Life
Knowledge
Freedom
Humanity
Depth replaced
By the lack thereof
All signs of spirit and soul
Are
Expendable
