Black butterfly
It started long ago.
It still and will forever remain.
Power feeds it and to its favour then lets it go.
The subnormal intelligence of the ignorant brain!
Years from now historians will say the same.
Generation after generation, decades on and on!
Why hasn’t human life mastered how to peacefully co-exist when it can split the atom and create atomic bombs?
Chaos theory states the butterfly effect may create rain!
What theory can we call it when ignorance creates pain?
Over lies, over hate, over nothing…perhaps even if it sees a black butterfly landing on a white flower?
