Poems by Kelvin Owusu : 36 / 78
Humanity
We smile with hatred in our eye
we forgive through shame and despite
hidden engenders reveal through time
jealousy is a nasty attribute
yet without all the negativity
we would never know nor truly understand
the goodness within men and women
humanity is a strange destructive
yet beautiful.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Robert Frost
Mat Hyuin is an interesting fellow,
a tad destructive and just a tad mellow.
His laughter is hopeful, his sex is supreme,
his birth is a beautiful, guilty machine.
His war is a terror, his killing is token
the gears of his faithful economy, broken.
His vision is blurry his hindsight is sharp
and equally skillful with bowstring and harp.
He lives in the moment but thinks in the past
and wonders what happened, where time went so fast.
wow..after reading this..feel like animals are more superior..fabulous.. :)
humanity can make everything beautiful
wars, slaughter, racial bigotry, class prejudice
It's what humanity can do fot itself
that makes it human
You have painted the contrasts in humanity, the good and the bad, the beauty and the ugly, the strangeness and the commonness when humanity is experienced. Keep on writing. You may need to give attention to some punctuation marks and how they can add to the flow of thoughts and contrasts. Thanks for inviting to comment on your poems.
A fantastic poem brother, a lot of truth in this.
