A Very Human Nature

Somewhere along the way we lost sight. Somewhere along the way we lost the feel. The world spins along in its way. The earth sighs at its human deal. How many hardships sail on its seas? How many people suffer? A nature bent on selfish greed, a nature of ferocity and killing lead, a very human nature. The years we work, we strive hard to see more years yet uncovered. For what of those people sleeping in the streets - their dreams and lives are shattered. Where is this equal, this equality when the beauty of coloured skin is hated? Where is this equality when female intellect and skill is berated? I watch a star flicker endlessly and hope humanity finds a breakthrough. I watch a spider spinning so expertly and feel somethings in life are so amazing. I feel the temper in the air and hear history crying in the night winds. I close my eyes and sense despair for what we have made us.
