Evolution of Man
When did man become sick?
Besmirched with the sin of greed,
Fortified to kill his brother in fear of losing his pride,
When did man become revolted by the color of skin?
And the gift of a child became a burden,
When did man's knowledge become dangerous?
And the power the change the world meant to lose the world
When did man stop his compassion for nature?
And allowed for it to be destroyed by fire without remorse,
When did man become blind?
And his ignorance became his bliss.
When did man forget God?
