This is not a joke.

This is somebody’s life.
Flesh, bone and blood.
Same as yours.

Is this self-hate or sadism that makes you
Knit letters together to make
Words of mass destruction,
Tearing through the hearts of strangers,
Staying safe —
S E P A R A T E D
From your victims behind a screen.

But, you could never truly be
S E P A R A T E D
From them.
Because you are flesh, bone and blood,
Forever entwined with the world you hate.
