Mind Damaged.
Colorless, demolition, permanent.
Painstaking knowledge so lethal as a blade of a knife is.
Demoralized by society, sustained by cognition.
Modified Life-form.

The author's comments:
This was inspired by my writing teacher who provided my classmates and I on a field trip to the Art Institute of Chicago.
