Dangerous Species

If Humans were to disappear from the Earth tomorrow, what would have been our contribution or legacy as a whole?

An effeminate, eight year-old boy called, Lace

 The septuagenarian rape case gone unsolved

 Chemical pollution of something beautiful as a cloud

Whatever shrouds the human vision?

As a race

A reason probably simple as being overly, too loud

 We captivate

Manufacture from destruction.

Can benefits be attained from abortion?

 Whatever shrouds the human vision?

 As a race,

Clear evidence of distaste for peace

 Humble pie should be distributed to the poverty-stricken,

 Finally

A meal which shouldn't turn rancid

No such effigy as a slum-cook

This creation,

A book all would enjoy,

A position for which any can be employed

Games played where not one single contestant would lose.

The greatest loophole in the circle of Life

To choose when and where Death swings his scythe, sadly…

An event where no man has Foresight!

 Hence,

 The eternal fight for supremacy

   Inside many men,

Resonates an immature belief that power…

 Breeds Immortality.

Reviews

[David Scott]

True power is infinite and pure because it is accountable to sustain all life. What we call power is the illusion of power without the maturity to control or even understand the scope or context of our abilities and gifted privileges.
An intelligent write. Well done.

REALITY IN A POEM! MY GOD! Where are your reviews, friend!? You are an amazing writer I assure you that! VERY vivid and of course, familiar. That is key! We live in this type of world and I can't imagine a single person whom I personally know (whether they like poetry or not) who wouldn't read this poem and love it! The ending was perfect! Those fools...
