empathy dies -

[La Rocque]

The capacity to recognize and feel the suffering experienced by another
sentient being, empathy succumbed to a long illness.
The cause was G ... L.....'s comment on a YouTube video that showed
a woman cracking her skull after tripping over a garden hose:
"LOL, bitch!"
Empathy has been in decline for days,
in the wake of dozens of other comments including
"Hahahahahahaha"
"Taste the pavement"
It was 15,000 years old.
Empathy's death closely followed those of its siblings
sympathy and compassion,
according to the last surviving member of their family, sociopathy -

"Poetry" and punctuation have always been at war! But I guess "poetry" finally won, thanks to the internet.
