Copyright © 2008 #03 4/12/2008 // (Edited: 1/22/2013/lp (a historical glimpse of humanity's rise) *This poetic epic begins with the greatest sin against humanity *This poem is dedicated to all serving and protecting the ¨Basic Rights of Mankind¨ Once, mankind was forgiven from sin but continue to embrace it like a trend After the Flood many nations strolled some didn´t want true history told All mankind has got to realize humanity had been vandalized A few condemmed HIM to a Cross and mankind became a hope lost His testimony was like no other a promise bonding men as brothers So, was it hate, shame or pride? The Shroud of Turin now abide Something embedded itself into minds their egos separated mankind thru time From images of Christ to the Sphinx mankind altered their faces with ink Societies increased across the land but some became marauding bands Enslaved many to learn their ways called indentured servants nowadays Learning finally opened many minds forbidden to most throughout time Conquering became a lust many thought they must Barbarians embraced warfare believing in war over prayer Some journeyed to build but most decided to steal Robbing nations precious gold slaughtering the young, and old another story that was not told Saw oppressing others was nice ensnared some as their sacrifice Oppression increased in the land because of the barbarian's plan Their business began to boom and corruption shot to the moon America, land of morality and hope still someone was signing for dope Capital´ism made a few very rich sin and immorality, Islam tried to fix paganism and Communism a glitch a conflict to shove Christianity in a ditch Old governments embraced the Klan still got history's blood on their hand. Kept society busy with Santa Claus knowing its origin is spiritually false They knew global warming was real maybe too late, this just sent a chill Interested learning secrets of the brain Drug gangs driving societies insane Kids with little future left in sight hopes dwindled like the Knight Then, later came Robin Hood with good news from the wood Someone revived human rights still, some decided not to fight No need for humantarian crises diabolical plans rolling the dices These sinful plans between hands slaughtering the lambs of the land We need to fix this mess before we come to rest Most of world history twisted some are now rying to fix it For some Nations, it was too late capital'ism quickly sealed their fate Africa was a continent very rich ...now realizing it is in a ditch never should´ve trusted Mitch I even heard the Rossette Stone was hidden in someone´s home The secrets of Giza painted in Mona Liza Even the Eyptian Sphinx tried to give mankind a wink now hides her missing links And, the pyramids contained a sacred Key stolen by those not wanting us to be free Someone hide Pandora´s Box with final desination Fort Knox Even, saw the Bible's Holy Grail shipped by Fed-Ex Express Mall Most gold, and precious artifacts was found stolen, and hijacked It´s hard for most to understand they kept us busy with their plan So, in this life we must cast our vote moving forward with faith and hope Those affected have become a scorn got them hungry from dusk to dawn World economies causing a recess ego and pride got us in a big mess The Middle East became a feast. I wonder who planned that piece? They say Mohammed started this fuss. through history who dare finger Guss? These differences in world religions still affecting mankind's decisions Humanity began in Africa and Irak but millions destituted in a shack The Americas to China has similiar pain but yrants' view them as a social stain And, there was oil for food but someone became rude So, once again East meets West fighting over another treasure chest Expenses reaching trillions recovery costing billions death in the millions The greatest gift is charity why concentrate on disparity? We need to fix this mess or earth soon to rest Mismanagement of world funds resources available by the tons The poor and depair need more still someone's locking the door Feeling no guilt with pride and the fortunes they hide Corruption and terrorism sown by a few of government´s own Someone´s selfish plans ahead have now made us very afraid... maybe baked or nuked instead Distitute's nourishment is baked dirt nothing else or their stomachs hurt Most of the time with nothing to eat weeping for a peaceful night sleep The 3 pathways to Heaven are narrow selfish can learn from the sparrow. When the next ATOM splits and divide some gonna try to run and hide knowing they deceived many and lied So, don´t worry about a thing tonight soon GOD will make things alright Then, all children will be able to play The Prince of Peace will come to stay So, remember before it´s over they too needed a shoulder by: LP
