Man
The poisons running through our bodies,
anger rising in the minds of the many people,
love in the minds of the few.
The smoke is in the air,
The liquid in our own bodies,
hatred in our hearts.
The poisons being consumed,
from sugar to THC to alcohol to heroin,
look at what we are doing.
Look at the environment, the people,
look at the way we treat our children,
the way we treat strangers.
Truth is hidden in the words of the liars,
for truth is not acted upon,
our feelings are protected by being hurt.
A killing to save a life,
lies to protect truth.
Where is good?
The raptors given popularity,
good given hatred,
innocent given pain.
This is man,
man is evil in his ways,
man wants love but gives hate.
