Uncivilized Anarchy

Uncivilized Anarchy

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

and war

"
Many humans are uncivilized
usually before they can read
The need to eat to survive
requires killing animals for feed
 
Those who do the killing
are also soldiers in a war
Killing humans for survival
is mainly what wars are for
 
When populations increase
they need more food to eat
Wars and killing are their answer
for those not suffering defeat
 
The world today has not changed
religions determine the wars
Killing is now against humans
and how countries settle their scores
 
Food requires fewer animals
religions are the cause of the fight
Priests tell the uncivilized
that killing is a fight for the right
 
This struggle will go on forever
when so few people can read
Ignorance of the uncivilized
caused by priests guilty of greed
 
When more people learn to read
killing will be a lessor concern
War will only be destructive
survival will be more about learn
 
Civilization is less about religion
and more about using the mind
Independent free exploration
to become the civilized kind
