Same Errors...Tomorrow?

For me, today errors are the mirror image of past errors.
Can man be accused of "genocide by ignorance"?
Can we claim to "just following orders"
Why we let it go so far as to be trapped inside a war we didn't wanted?
How come, if we consider us to be the "homo sapiens"?
Why didn't we said NO!!!?


Poem Artwork

World in turmoil, as been for a long time,
starting with ancient seafarers escapism,
trying to go away from their local yokes
they put forever over us words ending on ism.

The Crusaders went away to the Holy Land
pulled by the oldest feeling, the altruism,
to liberate what was not a fair prisoner there,
but creating the biggest of this world schism.

No satisfied with other men's status-quo,
smart entrepreneurs build out of weir cubism,
an archaic system to replace another one, and
called it, pardon me, Monolithic Communism.

No to be overdone, other full of enterprise men,
saw opportunity to embark on their own nihilism,
but they could not infringe the proletarian patent,
so they called theirs, Good Monolithic Fascism.

As History still rolls down the mountains of age,
have we learned anything from the above realism?
or we are committing the same errors of the past...
like the light repeat itself going through the prism?

Perfect offering to ponder!!

Superb analogies Georg! I think we need a whole new start. If we could choose our own leaders, throw out all parties and politicians now in office, we might stand a chance. We really do need a clean sweep the government is too corrupt to govern anymore!

great poem to ponder George, I pondered and say you're right, it's the same old same old. One war ends, another one begins. There are those who make big profits from wars, I would doubt if they're the ones who send agents out to start them

How well this denotes the mind is still in the same condition it has always been. Surely it could not have been the lessons of time that the past was suppose to teach us. Such food for thought here. Lady J

makes you wonder who did the programming? for certainly we humans are amazing fast learners in technology, yet mentally/emotionally challenged in social/society graces

If we keep making the same mistakes over and over, it would appear we have not evolved as far as we have convinced ourselves that we have. Good pen!

Thanks,

It seems the smarter we get the less we know; or is it just human nature doing what human nature does?

History reveals that mankind keeps repeating the same mistakes - over and over again. Doesn't say much for our ability to learn. We probably aren't as smart as many choose to believe.
