OTTUMWA —
They call themselves
human being,
I call them man
and woman being
They are not humane ...
And I want no part of it,
The world demise.
It’s the hatred,
The Lies, The BLOODSHED,
The disguise.
It’s making me ill,
I want to gouge my eyes
to see no more tears —
Countless tears, it’s the
Wicked
And cruel beings.
Somedays
I cover my ears,
Not in disregard to
your nightmares,
No.
I cover my ears
to the sound of your pain,
As it becomes mine
And all I can hear,
And all I can feel
is the echo of endless screams
and sobbing,
the agony,
pure torture of thousands.
They walk this earth,
these beings,
They stomp on anyone in
their way, heartlessly.
They are merciless in
their quest,
this quest I call life
they call race.
Human. Race.
I have seen little
humanity in these beings.
They run to win,
I want to run to aid
the people who are
trampled upon,
by the masses of greedy,
selfish beings.
Life isn’t a race
to me it is Love.
This leave me
with one question.
Are you human?
