Why Man Destroys Man? Poem by Tom Zart

Life may place us in deep waters
But God doesn't wish us to drown.
Adversity reveals who we are
As to others we smile or frown.

There's no better teacher in life
Than troubles which come our way.
Adversity strengthens our minds
As we pray what to do and say.

Too often success shows but one side
Of the world we find ourselves in.
Adversity teaches us all
Humans hate, lust, love, war and sin.

Where violence thrives, there's the stench of death
With the taste of fear on every breath.
Who shall prevail, be disabled or die?
As the wicked kill beneath God's sky.

Sometimes victory comes too slow or quick
Sometimes the cost on both sides is sick.
There must be a reason man destroys man
Why it is so, we can't understand.
