Array ( [sid] => 148270 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I am [time] => 2009-03-02 16:15:51 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I am flesh.
Muscles and blood and bone covered with skin.
I am eyes.
Watching the world as it slowly spirals into self-destructive madness.
I am ears.
Hearing the sounds of man as they become more primative and volitile.
I am a mouth.
Through which i tell the great lie that man is the greatest of gods creatures.
I am feet.
Running ever faster towards war and chaos and death.
I am hands.
Building and creating ever more ingenious weapons to use against my fellow man.
I am man.
And i am the great destroyer, the murderer of my own species.
