“To The Warmongers I'm back again from hell With loathsome thoughts to sell; secrets of death to tell; And horrors from the abyss. Young faces bleared with blood sucked down into the mud, You shall hear things like this, Till the tormented slain Crawl round and once again, With limbs that twist awry Moan out their brutish pain, As the fighters pass them by. For you our battles shine With triumph half-divine; And the glory of the dead Kindles in each proud eye. But a curse is on my head, That shall not be unsaid, And the wounds in my heart are red, For I have watched them die.”

“Humanity will only get a chance to exist in this universe for a very long time, only when humanity becomes a single army fighting against the universe instead of fighting each other! A humanity fighting in itself wastes valuable energy in this chaotic universe where there is a race against time to survive!”
