Another Kind of Man

To be intrusive to another's mind to taste what the hells going on To be different from other men as they sing a different song For this, this blind man seeks to be the seeker to see and scan To go inside the mind of another, another kind of man History has shown and reminded of the monsters that have been This trait of human man, as each generations scene What makes us be so different, to hurt whom we care and love Is it some form of weakness we allure, against family loving doves As I enter their minds even deeper, the appalling rise to view Standing proud in their deathly mask, their hurting of others true Rapists, serial killers and dictators, or even the family man What possesses their power to indulge, that this blind man can't even scan My thoughts go out to you all, who have suffered at the hands of man Evolution is not the answer, to really be who they can This blind man he said to me, if I look into you what will I find My reply to him was simple, I'm just a different kind http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/loss-6.php

Criminals and dictators inflict a lot of harm, James, but it is the "family man" who takes his problems out on those he holds dear. I don't understand the motives any of these people have. Your compelling poem got me thinking and I don't believe I'd want to enter the minds of such men, James. Very astute observations! Love, Carolyn
