Lost Faith In Humanity
About a few days ago, to my embarrassment,
I saw two men ill-treating a dog. They beat it until its death!
The men were laughing, having fun.
I was taken aback.
And lost faith in humanity.
Homo Sapiens, meaning Wise Men.
Hah? Wise men?
Are we?
Man has turned into an inhumane senseless beast.
The world is full of crass materialism.
War bloodshed and terrorism.
A faultless infant,
A starving dotard.
Do these innocents deserve this?
Man has become a cruel, blood sucking leech,
Is this what our culture and religion teach?
Grief, unhappiness and pain has become a common sight,
Small things, big fights.
I am shocked to see the inhumanity of a man towards man,
towards animals.
We talk of wisdom, intelligence.
Where are we? Is this going good?
Where are the senses gone?
The world has turned into a nasty pit.
Lack of morals, Lack of wit!
I feel ashamed,
I feel pity!
And yes? Completely lost faith in humanity.
If this continues
Human species will not last longer.
Just think about it.
Make this world a better place to live in?
