Reality
What of life and its meaning?
Do we really contemplate why we are sentient?
Do we ask ourselves how we really evolved?
Do we care?
I know that religion challenges Darwinism.
I know that every religion believes in different deities.
To question a religion is to challenge peoples’ beliefs.
Religion has been the cause of more conflict than anything.
Politicians wrap their economic greed in religious wrapping.
Each element blames the other and prolongs the conflict.
As a species we live on conflict and need an excuse.
Man, the hunter, without compassion but fuelled by what?
Greed, wealth, power, subordination of the helpless.
Let not the politicians and religious fanatics rule us,
But instead adhere to the true scriptures of peace,
Of charity and goodwill to all people.
To Hell with politicians.

A very well written poem. Your words speak volumes. A very fine write, and an equally fine read. Wonderful job. |
