Hard Wired: Now I am Become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds

Dead 

no longer

alive

what remains is the shell 

of the egg that has fried

 

Operating without a locus of

control or a moral code;

no soul means inhuman acts 

of violence

 

Carry out the directive of evil

an extension of a system of 

insane hard wired chaos

 

Beyond the flesh,

into a world of absurd

existence where lines are blurred

and down is up to the one who goes

down the path of destruction 

 

Now the metal is the skin

now the wires are the veins

now the chip is the brain

 

There are no limits

for the one who is no longer alive 

 

Because nothing matters

to the one who no longer has the hope of salvation 

 

An agent of evil:

metallic nightmare

assured of damnation,

extending the unnatural ghoulish existence,

with cybernetic enhancements replacing

the old flesh with the new

 

"Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"
