Bloodless

"Seven thousand four hundred and twenty one people died today"....
i feel nothin. i am cut,but i do not bleed.WHY DONT I BLEED....?
shake me,hurt me,i wanna bleed.i SHUD bleed.i shud feel SUMTHIn.religon ,morality-everything tells me i shud bleed for these ppl-ppl i do not know,people i have never met. i shd feel pity.i feel nothing-NOTHINg.i.am.detached.Am i human...?is it human to feel nothin..?I open my eyes-i see -chaos,confusion around me.A stampede-faceless people-maimed.i am them,and yet i am not them.i am n a void-and all that separates me from them-is myself.But,if i were to see,one face,just ONE face in that crowd-even for a MILLISECOND-of a person i know-whom i care about,anyone of my frends...i would throw myself into the stampede-and save them,or die tryin.Even the slightest cut then-wud bleed me dry.Where did the emotion come from...?WHERE...?where did it go..?where...?Am i human...?Human, if i bleed-even unto death for the pain,no matter how small,sufferd by what is mine.And if i am detached,when it is not of mine...?am i human...?tell me..
