The Inevitable Nature of Man

Unlike a cat,
man is hard to know
because he can change
where you don't believe!
Man is a lier,
jealousy and greed
not like a dog which strive to eat.
Man can smile
to deceive himself that is ever good
which is not true
according to his dubious plans.
Man obeys the law
just in words but in action and belief,
he like chaos and wars.
Again he likes to work
to opulent himself,
and the best priority of man
is money and food.

Wish reality were different, There are still some people who have a spiritual side.
