All because of civilization By Blossom Monyei

Those people were totally naked,
They knew nothing than being barbarians.
As innovations gradually came from below They'd thought it was from above.

Civilization brought greed
Greed brought corruption
Corruption brought inequality
Inequality brought conflict

Conflict brought suffering
Suffering brought oppression
Oppression brought resistance
Resistance brought violence

Violence brought destruction
Destruction brought loss
loss brought hatred
Hatred brought grudge.

And it continues...... All because of civilization.
