outside in

Even when we're peaking
we're failing
we're flawed
restless
envious
distrusting
clashing
corrupting
man kills because he has insides
ironic that he kills with his outsides
a man without a purpose never profits
he lives outside in
a perversion
fists pounding his rib cage
mistaken for a beating heart
he tears at his intestines
taking life wherever possible
as long as it's his own
he cares not for the forces of others
with rare exception
