It’s a human eat human world…

---humans are "SUPPOSED" to be the higher thinking species...?


Poem Artwork

Humans kill each other without thought to consequences,
Very little do humans seem to have cognizance,
All they seem to care about is dominance,
None that I find seem to have prominence…

Bomb blasts from those who create terror,
Of life children are seemingly taught by trial & error,
They see so much killing & death in the daily news,
That it seems to ruin their future views..

Love does not even seem to exist in the family unit,
Better we are or seem to be to live life a eunuch,
Then love we can still feel, but can’t have progeny,
Better if necessary to raise children as a vegetable,
Quite possibly to give them less future pain,
Better to raise them to be a strong stalk of broccoli…

Being a parent myself, I now understand why
some animals eat their young.
But I've never understood why you can't outrun a Zombie.
LOL

You need to get out more… And I don't mean to the latest casino! Whenever I go to places where kids are… The last place was the Houston Zoo near Halloween with all the kids dressed up in costumes. I find a lot of happy, well-adjusted, and engaging children. I don't think the world is as shown on the daily news. It's much better than that, and only in getting out into that world can one find out.

Without love, we are nothing and, sadly, a lot of folks know not how to love. Love and peace to you, Ed.

Not to make light of an excellent piece with a timely message, but how in the Hell did you find out that I am a eunuch?

Even back to the cavemen age, men has been fighting each other...if not for the reason of food it's for reasons of others. Nothing has ever changed. The more advanced the society is the less caring and more violence. It's the power plays in between nations. Religions seems to have been the main cause of most wars. It would have been nice if all nations are under one God, but we all know it's only wishful thinking. Nothing has changed, and it will less likely to ever change in the future. Sad!!!

Man has always killed man. I don't think it's any worse now than in the past. It's just that we are bombarded with news and info 24/7. It comes to a point where we become desensitised to the horrors of mankind.

You are right about people wanting dominance. It's a sickness that rids the mind of morals and helping each other out. Write on!

Love ya!

They learn from what they see. Hate is common if your religion buys into this or if you pervert your religion into something it is not.
