Technical Foul


Weak of mind, hard of heart, strong of will,
the humans entertained themselves
with selfish games of war.

Jousting with mortality, the frail species,
preoccupied with fear and all its offspring,
practice delicious exercises in extermination.

By rude referee's demand, the fools,
headlong resolved to end their lot,
sit in anger, cursing, from the penalty box.

Just like little children that don't get their way, they become ugly with fits and hitting.
