Every time I climb that ladder to be high to reach that Ego fruit, and think myself holier than thou, this brings the; I, back to reality.

 

 
What salvation?
 
 
Pain caused by the human greed,
So many creatures big and small,
No human decency you heed,
Cruelty your call,
 
Puppy mill to slaughterhouse,
In cages bound and tied, they suffer,
Monkeys, dogs, and little mouse,
To Gods of cruelty we offer,
 
In aggression would our goodness mend?
Of so much better use it be,
Instead our evil deeds defend,
What happiness we’d see!
 
Gluttony, murder, greed, not love,
It seems we have forgotten,
Admonishments from up above,
Moreover, on the path to hell are trotting,
 
I am first; I am hungry, sick, in need,
Never mind who is being hurt,
Salvation need with speed,
Who cares, if suffering has occurred?
 
You enlightened darling of the ages,
As Gods the universe pursues,
Yet in sin you pay your wages,
Not your better nature’s truth,
 
Every moment every day,
Walk blinded in the light of God,
You lost your path, your way,
Without the light of love, you will find him not.

Ego Fruit - probably the deadliest food on planet Earth, and we humans can't seem to get enough of it - yet it may end up killing us all.

Jasmin, you have been born on the wrong planet, you shouldn't have come here, this is no place for angels, because this place is so full of demons that the few good ones left are getting suffocated!

Powerful writing!
It seems many think of only themselves these days.

A wonderfully written poem about the greed and cruelty of man. And how it can never be "fixed" without God.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
