Strings
Humans.
Such magnificent creatures.
Walking around this Earth, considered the smartest on this planet.
With every single one of these…things claiming themselves
The best ones, the smartest ones, the worthy ones.
Worthy.
How could you be worthy?
You are no gods, you aren’t ruthless rulers
You are so much as the ant
That I crush beneath my feet.
And I'm going to show you something beautiful.
This cold world will be screaming for mercy.
You soulless demons, waiting carelessly
While your master tries to unravels your strings.
Strings.
Everyone is tangled in…strings
Your conscience defies your loyalty
Your ideals blind you of justice
Your petty emotions cloak you cowardly pests
From the true nature of this world.
Humans.
I am not human.
I am not one of you useless sacks of flesh.
I am alone, and I prefer to be that way.
I want peace, and that path includes your extinction.
I am a god, and I have one goal in mind
I’m gonna tear you apart from the inside.
No, scratch that…I’ve lied to you all
Lost in my rant, haven’t we?
I’ve had strings, but now I’m free
I have no rules or laws that bind me
There are no strings on me

This poem is really-to me, at least-a way for me to try and take on the role of another character, good or bad. In this instance, I'm taking on the voice of Ultron, a villain in the upcoming "Avengers: Age of Ultron."
