Man’s Inhumanity to Humanity
This is a poem about Man's Inhumanity to Humanity throughout the history of our world.
If we look back in time we will see
Crimes committed against humanity
Sick ideas that somehow grew

Slavery, holocaust to name a few
Starvation, torture, prisoners of war

Killing and robbing, breaking the law
Most would shake our heads and say
How did things ever get that way?
How could so many allow it to be?
Closing their eyes, refusing to see
Such inhuman acts against humanity
How blessed am I that it wasn’t me
Yet, many who condemn the past
Sadly will be among the very last
To admit they now walk in the shoes
Of those responsible for killing Jews
Or selling slaves be they black or white
Because they now claim abortion is a right
“It is a woman’s body” we hear them say
As thousands of babies are aborted each day
They lie to the families; their only concern
Is how much more money they can earn
They do all they can to silence our voices today
Hoping to be rid of all who get in their way
But little by little we are turning the tide
For evil will never find a place to hide
God always conquers evil, we can be sure
He has promised to do so for evermore
