Day 15 - Endangered
Here, here, humans are getting endangered,
Screams the nomad, clutching his head.
Looks of confusion and dread
Can be seen among the people.
Here, here, I don't see any humans anymore,
Cries the nomad, rubbing his eyes.
They tie him up and curse him
And don't wonder why he cries for them.
Here, here, these evil thoughts make my ears bleed
Struggles the nomad, trying to free himself.
They laugh at him and his misery,
For their art of understanding has diminished.
Here, here, kill me now and spare me the torture
Of having to live among you all,
Where kindness and humanity are scarce,
Where bloodied headlines damage our hearts
Into fearing another fellow being that comes by,
But are they wrong? Don't we have to?
Where dying children don't make you flinch
But losing money makes you go mad,
Doesn't that make you sick?
Where selflessness is often doubted,
And your neighbour's miseries are celebrated,
When you don't realize the person standing
Next to you is just like you,
You will understand our souls are
no longer human.
They laugh at the nomad once again,
Who might have been the
last one who mourned for us.
