Here lies humanity
cold in its shallow grave.
The victim of a homicide
that no one tried to save.
Murdered by the hatred
of its fellow man.
A death that was iminent
since time first began.
Everyone saw it coming
but no one would intervene.
They witnessed their own demise
and sharpened the guillotine.
They fastened the noose
and hung it from the tree.
They loaded the gun
that shot down humanity.
They prescribed the drug
and gave the overdose.
They pulled the plug
while it lie there comatose.
They inflicted the fatal wound
that left humanity dead.
Then morosely watched in silence
as it slowly bled.
Now no one's left to read
what's engraved here on this stone.
For it is all that remains
since humanity was overthrown.
