Has humanity made t' world less fun to play
Do the trees chatter loud in protest songs
Encouraged by the winds that blow
With banner flags and protest songs
With stones thrown to overthrow tyrants
Burning effigies as ritual to the cause
Has man made the world less fun to play
Neighborly words shared by the others
Species wandering if we as human
Are more parasitic in being, to hunt
Cannibalistic in emotions, to bully the weak
Watching our young ones decline in dejection
Quenching the internal light that enshrines joy
Set deep in our core, blowing cold, cold and mean
Has humanity made the world less fun to play
Do the trees chatter loud in protest songs
I surely think they do, we need controlling and quickly
ReplyDeletePerhaps humanity has made the world less fun to play but I love the nutrality of the trees and rocks and all of nature. That's why they give us the same peace no matter what our leanings are. Love this poem and the thoughts it produces. Very unique work that has the mind reaching.
ReplyDeleteThe repition is great. The theme is hard--still it we should all consider this poems meaning. Because the course can be altered.
