Shrinking Humanity

When the humanity shrinks,

the soul is crushed.

It is loathed in blood....

the blood of the Devil.

His eyes lies in the frost

Gazing at the mirrors of the flame of pain

His soul has abandoned him.

so he is swallowing others to grim.

This elite kingdom is shattered

The noble King is dead..

the eulogies of Angels have vanished.

all there remains....is the song of the Fiend!!

the fragrance of innocence is now...stinking

and the hearts of millions are now.burning!!!

All there remains are ashes and hatred....

Answer me.O People!

is there any humanity left???

O K A Y - definitely not one of my favored subjects (seeing the picture) - As for the question - yes - yes I believe there is humanity left in us. If you look to charities and volunteer functions, people from all over the world are still reaching out a hand to help others.

For instance, I volunteered for 12-years at a remote church food bank despite having no religious connections of my own. Everything went well and no-one cared that I was agnostic (or atheist) since I treated every person with dignity and respect there.

The preacher currently serving knew of my views and that I fully believed religion was a personal and individual thing - but he always treated me with kindness and acceptance - because I wanted to help people.

Eventually this nice preacher as I described him, "Quiet, Passionate, and Senior" retired and was replaced by another, "Loud, Young, and Arrogant" and he 'culled' through the list of volunteers that were not Christian, and my name came up - and he point blank asked me directly as I was filling a box - loud enough so everyone in the room could hear it, "Do you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior ?"

I responded as I think any logical person would. "I have yet to be asked by Him and I think that is His affair, not yours."

so - he promptly dismissed me. Reminded me very much of Joan of Arc. Hmm ...

While not all situations in life are good you should never brood solely on the bad of humanity, there are so many good things in the world. Perhaps that's why God gave us two-eyes, so even if one eye is focused on the bad, the other one can ever and always be focused on the good.

Always look for the good in humanity, and if you can't find it, =MAKE= it yourself so others can see it within you. :)

oh wow that was so rightly said:
"Perhaps that's why God gave us two-eyes, so even if one eye is focused on the bad, the other one can ever and always be focused on the good."
yet i'm not saying that humanity is vanished, but has quite degraded than it was like before(the title says that). and you're absolutely right that we must make it a better place by ourselves rather than blaming others. as i know that if humanity would have vanished, our existence would have been quite impossible! thanks a lot for this lovey and thought provoking review! thanks again!

Well - you just gotta be in your home, front door locked (and barred, I use a special diagonal metal brace), after 6pm. Even zombies can't get in ! :D

But yes, blame serves really no purpose. I come across something wrong I sigh and say, well, let's just get it done and it'll be lots better when it is - and that's how I go through life.

You're very welcome for the review ! Here's hoping more uplifting and happy articles in the future ! :7

That's so true... I get angry and annoyed on listening to news always giving out news of 'death'..
The poem is really amazing because it explains what is going on in today's society. Wonderful.
Keep writing :)

Of course there's humanity, otherwise life would be non existent. We create a balance in this backwards world and strive for harmony, but ignorance breeds faster than common sense. Excellent read and write.

thanks...but if you go with the title..you'll understand what i'm saying....i'm not saying that it has totally vanished.but is on the EDGE of being vanished until and unless we human try to build it as strong as it was way back then ....my question is simple .i'm asking to the public.that if they truly know what "Humanity" is and it's power..than i think i should not be seeing so much devastating sight everyday...i have said "Everyday"!!!!

It appears to be fading, but is stronger than you see from where you are, where I am. On the same page and fighting the same war;)

[The dark story]

oh yes .you're right!!

[Weeping Willow]

Man had turn to berserkers. They taste blood and kill without mercy. I will never understand how a man born in a country. Would bomb his own city? World to stop. Reset and find a peaceful solution before it is too late. Your question is a very good one.
"is there any humanity left???"
I hear people at work. They say attack Iran. I tell them would they be happy in their sons and daughters will died in war for no reason? I get silence. Must get the leaders into a room. Fix the problems before a million people will die for hatred and foolishness. Thank you for the outstanding poem.
