Consumerism

I watched as the flesh yeilded 
scabbard-like
to the repeated thrusting of a bloody sword
and I hated.
I hated the Man 
composing the law which ravages humanity;
I hated the woman
all eagerness to please and fading into non-entity;
I hated myself
who joined my voice with those in the horde,
despairing that my whimpered protests 
were lost in the squall.
