A Star Says Human
"Do you listen? I am a star
I watch you all, though I am far
For centuries, are in my view
Whate'er different people do
I know the world with no human
No religion, race or slogan
Water was blue and land was green
The face of earth was crystal clean
My friend, the Sun, was proud of earth
Before it gave, to human, birth
Human came with destruction plans
Race, wealth, norms, frauds, oppression, clans
Where strong are masters, weak are slaves
Who have no life, rights, shrouds and graves
Where arrows pierced human backs
In wars; brutal, fatal attacks
Where color decides high and low
Downtrodden have no right to glow
Where so many were cut like cakes
In name of God, rev' and mistakes
Where of needy, no one takes care
Man is in dark, and there's no flare
Where Jack sleeps in Kin's spousal bed
When Jack's on work, his wife is red
Where beauty sleeps in arms of wealth
Whose every smile is just a stealth
Where dad can't feed his kids with pray
Where taxes are more than his pay
Where ideologies make a mess
Which cannot help someone in stress
Where commune, social, populist
The way of peace, always resist
Where freedom means the right to cheat
Where the same robbers just repeat
Where statistics are kept in dark
As to public rage, they can spark
Where all your thoughts follow a streak
And everything, I cannot speak."
