Carbon Killers

we are the carbon killers,
dressed
...in
....pretentious
...... arrogant
........robes,

burning sacrifices of coal and oil,
on the
...altar
.....of
.......self-worship!

devouring our very flesh,
wild
...hogs
.....without
.......rem orse,

blindly following the fire,
drenched
.......in
.........gasoline,

masturbating
...in
....the
..... .halls
.........of progress!
