On Contrition...

They seem to be "allergic", somehow, to REGRET, REMORSE, CONTRITION....
Modern-day SOCIOPATHS...
Or so it would appear...
And so...
They fly off, as bats in the night...
Invisible... Inarticulate... Insignificant really...
Interestingly, they "FEEL" LESS than insignificant....
They FEEL "IRRELEVANT"...
Because, in point of fact, they ARE...

They have been HARNESSED by those silly, striped FLOATIES...
ALL THEIR LIVES...Glued to their SPINELESS ARMS....
HEAVY under their GAUDY, UN-EARNED WATCHES....
Afloat....but unable to SWIM...
As worms...

"How can a SOCIOPATH "FEEL" ??", you ask ?
They have a kind of REFLEX REACTION to the danger of being overtaken by
their ALL-CONSUMING IRRELEVANCE...

Hell hath no fury...
