Humans

Simple faces complex feelings Smiling eyes hiding intentions dangerous A dagger in one hand, the other extended in greeting These are a few traits of this race Slithering towards it's victims with effortless ease Ambushing skills could put a rattler to shame Will devour every living thing, will never cease In the quest for supremacy, everything is fair game All living beings are pawns in this game of chess Sacrificing even Gods at the altar of individual gains Making Krishna fight Buddha, Allah with Jesus Holy wars giving the right to kill and maim The streets transformed into rivers of blood Screams silenced by the booming of guns Rejoicing when their own kin is dead And this race calls themselves humans
