Bananas

They say we evolved from apes,
  but an ape would never destroy its own environment;
  or be unwilling to share ---
  having an endless amount of anything,
  or have itself as its own worst enemy ---

Is this what they call standing upright?
  (Bananas)







***Darwinism and evo!ution could not happen without blood-clotting***

Kai Michael Neumann Date: 3/20/2018 3:16:00 AM The time might come when evolution weeds out the perpetrators. It can mean going backwards. But maybe in a galaxy far away? I am not sure whether religion is always a better guide than the dogma of money, but many of us have truly lost the thread of kindness. And egotism and also altruism could surely include saving the planet for some kinder genes to come true. And bananas do not kill unless one has some rare allergy. Mandkind and womankind surely has some autoimmune disorder. The cure? Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 3/20/2018 2:39:00 PM Religion isn't a better guide, the dogma of money either, the truth is. The ego? That's the problem... The dogma of money has no ethics, it is very much an old whore who should have died long ago. And bananas do kill if one needs them to survive...

Robert Lindley Date: 2/13/2018 8:26:00 AM I wholeheartedly agree with the comments made by Jack Ellison. Mankind too oft makes a monkey out of itself but never sprang from monkeys/apes. Login to Reply

Jack Ellison Date: 1/26/2018 2:15:00 PM Keith... I've been reading your reaction to the comments you received on this poem! Bang on my friend!!! My dad, (who passed away many years ago) and this old geezer agree with your thoughts on the subject 100%! You have a brilliant mind!!! Jack Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/26/2018 2:28:00 PM Thanks Jack! are we family? Your dad and yourself are very wise, appreciate your visit; I am merely a messenger through my relationship with Christ and a very loving Father;-)

Becca Teagan Date: 1/26/2018 9:01:00 AM I personally do not believe in the theory of evolution. Human beings can sure be arrogant, prideful, angry, hateful creatures. Bananas. I love it, Keith. Powerful in it's brevity. Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/26/2018 12:03:00 PM I couldn't agree more Becca. It is the belief in absolutes which creates all the nonsense; they ABSOLUTELY believe that their scientific findings or some peoples beliefs are all knowing when we don't even know much about the simplest atom. What's a child who was raised and believes in a loving God supposed to think upon being told we come from apes? The world is at great risk now and 'gurus' like Hawkings and Dawkins can only think of findings in science when it won't matter when the bombs start flying; who's going to care when homeless and starving in a war torn hell what science has discovered? Bananas...

Joseph May Date: 1/25/2018 7:14:00 AM So true Keith...we are our own worst enemy.. Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/26/2018 11:41:00 AM Unfortunately the ego maniacs refuse to believe this...

Silent One Date: 1/23/2018 2:47:00 PM I agree with Anne Lise.. Intersting poem Keith... Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/26/2018 11:38:00 AM Appreciate the visit Silent. It is interesting yes --- teaching this half-brained theory to schools and the masses to garnish doubts to our true origins; Darwinism doesn't probe far enough in this regard, putting a wall up between science and metaphysics; life must have a source, it is energy which gives life, not biological animations, what is this energy of life? Where does it come from? I believe this is all an endevour of truth finding --- the surest path to truth is through the very Source of truth itself; when science discovers this --- major progress can be made for mankind.;-)

Paul Callus Date: 1/23/2018 11:06:00 AM I totally agree with your reasoning, Keith. I'm afraid the world IS going bananas. Enjoyed your comments/replies down below, too! Best regards // paul Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/23/2018 11:22:00 AM Thanks Paul, I love meaningful dialogue with others. Greatly appreciate your visit;-)

Freddie Robinson Jr. Date: 1/23/2018 5:43:00 AM Thought-penetrating poetry, Mr. Keith! Deep space musing ... Borg observing the Planet of the Apes. Keep the love and knowledge flowing, by brother from another mother. This marvelous poem has great philosophical ap-peel. Lol! Go bananas. Love and smiles always. Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/23/2018 9:50:00 AM Appreciate the visit Freddie, I remember in science class a student had just learned that apparently we come from apes --- he said, 'We come from apes? ----My momma ain't no ape!'

Jan Allison Date: 1/22/2018 7:25:00 PM Bravo Keith such wise words indeed - just look at the mess the world is in and indeed it is all caused by humans:-( hugs jan xx Login to Reply Keith O.J.

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 1/22/2018 2:45:00 PM - Sorry to say it ... but I think monkeys have more intelligence than humans - I'm not impressed with what we humans are able to do ... with hate and devastation - Great written, Keith ! - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Keith O.J. Hunt Date: 1/22/2018 4:19:00 PM Good points Anne, a lot of people are reading the wrong books. Bad ideas or bad ideals make people bad. The greatest threat to mankind at the source is ignorance and stupidity, not so much 'evil' --- which comes from those two defiencies, it feeds the handful of devils out there controlling things the perfect stage to work from.
