Mad Men (should be cat. of madness)

Spin on
axis of earth .
For dust is all you are.
Minds conditioned.
Molded to hate,
just to maim new souls.
Permission inherited at birth
to slaughter,
with not a wince nor an ache.

Where
do you hide,
demons of humanity?
Perhaps,
just under rocks,
laughing.

Reminds me of a cormac mccarthy novel I've been reading. I think this may have been his point. The id is just below the surface. An unbridled, writhing, beast enshrouded in a cloak of the finest lace. Excellent read. Thanks!
