Article Two
Oh mankind what loathsome and perverse creatures you are.
You talk of giving yet you steel.
You talk of peace yet you make war.
You talk of love but still you hate.
Oh mankind you are the great conundrum.
A giver yet a thief, a peace maker yet a war monger.
One who loves his fellow man but, only if he has the same color skin.
Your open good will secretly serves you.
Your great deeds are a shimmering cloak that hides your true intent.
Oh wonder full man turn aside from the path that you are on.
Become what you are truly ment to be, the crown that sits atop creation.
Clean off the patina and polish your self.
Give without retaking, achieve peace, abolish war and love others more
than you love your self.
