Thinking not the man does make,not his soul does serious take!
*Thumbing his chest the hairless beast,* *He boasts, but ringing hollow,* *His fears, his threats, to say the least,* *His ego will soon follow,* *Buried in that cavern deep, that sits atop his head,* *Therein lies his pride, it shows,* *It grows by leaps and bounds, while his soul goes dead,* *However, swaggering with pride; he goes,* *With bigger better toys he plays,* *Then his brothers in the wild,* *These with egos pride displays,* *Claims, he’s Gods only child,* *Molesting though his earthlings kin,* *Rapes and pillage their domain,* *He knows they cannot win,* *All powerful his brain,* *However, shrinkage in his heart and soul,* *Diminished by the brains advance,* *Forgets the end result, the goal,* *Without them he has no chance,* *False pride, his major sin, he cannot see,* *To that his ego is so blind,* *That without them all, he cannot be,* *Unless his heart be kind,* *Dinosaurs had lived their day,* *A rock had done them in,* *We’re smarter though, we found a way,* *I think; God called it sin!*

Profound. This story shows up our weaknesses and then how we are ruining our world. Kill all those who aren't like us and then we will be great. But they don't stop there they just find another different different they can hate. Pride and ego, twins of destruction. Liz

Ego and Pride - I often think we humans would have been a much better species without them. Other species on this planet are very content with only heart and soul.

What most amazes me is when man thinks by destroying everything around him including people,he can achieve greatness. Where did he get that idea and why doesn't he pay attention to history that shows his ways are wrong and lead only to ruin! Excellent expose once again Jasmin!

Yes it is sad the arrogance that man posesses in his domination of the world without thought of what supports his own meager live.

Jasmin,

You described this person (and it could be anyone) beautifully.
