Man's play

Man's play

A Poem by prema

                                                         Man's play
                                                 

           Nature's course of action is undefinable 
           Going against nature is like killing slowly
           To put to test its endurance is the height
           Of man's play towards himself and nature.

           Manipulating vital discoveries 
           And using for selfish motives 
           Or for just destruction--when this happens
           Status of him is to unscrupulous beast.

           When savageness of beast awake in men
           Coupling with technology at his disposal
           The havoc it plays and its repercussion 
           Already we're witnessing, few realises it.

           Men unlike beast take things for granted
           He views everything as his birthright
           The game he plays with his mind and matter
           Is like a toddler playing with building blocks.

           Intelligence with power gains access 
           To all above and under the sky
           If not cautious, the depth of fall
           Would be as pathetic as of Icarus.
