Abdul Malik Mandani Poet Free verse

Caution

Beware of a creature called MAN;
Approach him with extreme care -- 
He's deadlier than death!

Of all the creatures
He alone walks upright
yet owns a twisted
heart and mind.
He walks on the land
but lords over
the waters and the air;

What he builds, he destroys,
He kills his own kind--
             En masse!
The creator of good and evil,
Heaven and hell;
The maker of
God and the devil!

Richard Lamoureux January 20, 2013 at 8:13 AM Perhaps mans greatest error is when he begins to believe he created God instead of the other way around. The further we seperate ourselves from God the more depravity enters our hearts. Love prevents us from hurting our fellow man and God is Love. We can not experience our humanity fully, apart from our creator. I like poetry that draws emotions. Well done Abdul.
