A New Species

A new species 




Cunning cheating
and then fleeting,
Machiavellian many
crafting and contriving,
Deceptive dishonest 
frankly defrauding,
Slaughtering slaying
bloodshed of massacre,
Conflicts and combats
enmity and warfare,
Uncaring unfriendly
barbarous and brutal,
Savage sadistic
Cruel and unsympathetic,
Cold hearted cold blooded
Insensitive Inhumane.

Contrary to what 
God had created,
Is it some new species ?

Greetings, Dr. Upma A. Sharma. Congratulations on your wonderful win. Mankind's cruelty and greed have plunged this world in a chaotic state. God's holy laws have been replaced by its own. " Conflicts and combats, enmity and warfare " are on the minds of powerful nations even today. Peace is still a delusion for many. I thank you for your kind comment yesterday. Thanks for sharing your heart-wrenching poem. Enjoy your day, my friend. Hugs, Andrew.

Indeed, mankind has perverted much of what God created! God forgive us and help us. This is absolutely great, Upma. Congratulations on your win. Janice

It is quite unsettling to consider the things 'this' species is capable of. J.
