The Downfall from Time Immemorial

As I comment upon the immaterial of human compassion,
A world of utmost sanction and dispassion,
We have come to a time of desensitization,
"435 civilians die": another part of the purported information,
Oh no vitality or reaction of conscience upon the reading of such grim realities,
Almost a cyclic realm of unbeneficial immersion,
435 die, 100 million die, 600 million die: viewed as statistical casualties
Of the tyrannical agenda, the propagandal articulation of delusion,
The essence of arrogance: the principle of patriotism,
A remote sense of boundless expansionist imperialism: the cost--
Humanity

Umm, this is not traditional poetic verse nor is it formal; just various lines articulating around a single subject.
