Piles of bloody, dying bodies – Women, men, little babies – Pierced by bullets, Ripped apart by exploding bombs. Such an exquisite sight; Such delicate beauty. To touch that warm blood, To feel it between my fingers, To taste it on my tongue – The delight is . . . Inexpressible: I am in ecstasy! Gliding through the astral plane With the beings of light That have visited me and taught me While in my vile, disgusting flesh. I am special, they tell me, I am chosen. I will recreate the world In my own image, And none can hinder me. I am invincible, Unstoppable, Indispensable. My truth is deceit, My light is darkness, My love is hatred. My closest friends I make my enemies. I am the only blessing Upon the face of the earth. I am an American.

The Yankee Empire has indeed turned Mark Twain's "War Prayer" on its head. Excellent and sadly accurate, Walt.

America: murder by abortion, democracy by bombs, sodomy for all, equality for none.
