The Appearance of Some Men

Many are the quick and deceiving ways
that entangle us or destroy us with lies,
and none of them can promise anything;
they resemble shadows coming
forth with the quiet  and brief dusk,
unable to dissolve an imponderable doubt! 

The apperance of some men
must be strongly felt 
and always remembered:
either by thought,
action or hand-work,
because their presence is too essential
to the survival of Mankind
whose destiny is held by a hook,
which could imminently snap
and worsen its downfall...
warnings are abused with curses
and words so unkind!

The apperance of some men
only showing rudness,pride,
vanity and insensibility...
deludes us all with that false, 
belief in implausible stability;
we  have stepped forward
with such unsound minds,
boasting ourselves of great gains!
The appearance of some men
was destined to predict
the unity Humanity can't find!
