Poems - Why Are We Here

Why Are We Here

by wolfinwindow

why are we here
where are we from
what have we done
when did we come
we somehow don't belong
it's apparent in our species
that we are alien to this place
we are the only animal
to do earth disgrace
we think we're clever
we think we're cool
we're inventors of weapons
we are the fool
we created all the cars
we caused all the pollution
where do we go from here
there is no solution
all the other animals
cooperate with earth
we're the only ones
who foul it from our birth
where did we come from
and why are we here
we don't love this planet
that is plainly clear

we mutated apes certainly have made a hell of a mess on this planet haven't we wolfie? when i was a kid, i dreamed of us living on other planets. in a way i'm quite glad we never made it. as we'd just make another mess all over mars and the moon - did you see that they shot all those tigers? - foxy paul and the sliding hound.

Yep! Often think that way too. We have ruined what God planed on being our paradise. All started with Adam & Eve if you think bout it. They changed things forever. A lot to think bout. Take Care & God Bless, Gail
