Humanity

Where are you humanity?

For I don't see you,

I search for you,

Look out for you,

But do not find you.

Instead,

I see your evil twin,

Prancing all around,

Dancing her evil dance,

I walk by indifferent,

Somewhere a man lies bleeding on the road.

Where are you humanity,

Where are you now?

I'm being human,

Just like you.

In the name of religion,

I murder scores,

I kill the unborn in her mother's womb,

Creating an imbalance of sorts.

I laugh out loud,

I'm on a rampage,

Crashing trains, blood and gore,

Hunger and thirst,

Childhood destroyed, monsters created;

I scream out loud,

I'm frightened now,

I hide in a corner.

Where are you humanity?

Where are you now?

Don't know from where

A frail, old, hand;

Reaches out to me,

Holding my trembling hands.

I see you now, humanity;

I see you now.

In the lines of my mother's face,

You still live.
