Monsters WithinA Poem by EveA response to the bombings in Paris.
It is often said that mankind is evil.
Mankind is the downfall of Planet Earth. For centuries, we have stomped on this ground; tread over this earth; reaped from the soil. For decades, we have polluted our rivers; destroyed the homes and lives of others. Since the dawn of mankind, stories of monster have always been told. Vampires, werewolves, demons, and ghosts are said to have walked this earth. For many, the existence of such creatures remains a mystery. For myself, I know they are real. They are alive. They walk the same ground, they breath the same air, and they live the same lives as we do. Not all of the people here are monsters. No, some are kind souls. Some are gentle and peaceful, some are bold yet beautiful. Not all humans are monsters. It takes a monster to kill a man, It takes a man to create a monster. All monsters are men.
