Notes on a brutal world...this is, to me, the nature of life and reality.
Come join us, little one, at this feast
held in honor of your arrival in
This world. 

Your dinner this fine eve will prove most delicious--
We'll rip out your intestines and shove
them deep into mouths as the guests
Drink the blood-wine and glory in the screams. Crimson life spills down
to soak the soul in black--follow it, chased by mocking laughter
into the depths of yourself to feel the emptiness, the cold
meaninglessness that is life...you'll never wash away
the blood that binds you to existence now.

Your mistake--to believe that you ever could matter
When you are merely a tool--valueless object to be
Used and thrown away.

Raise knife to throat and slash away, sanity--we'll see you again soon.
