Dark Side Of Humanity (Xenophobia, Terrorism, Genocide, Holocaust, Slavery, Apartheid…etc.) Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Caught in the act
The dark side of humanity exposed
Magnified by the sheer brutality of the acts
And the remorseless faces of the suspects
As well as the stupefied pose of the bystanders
The dark side of humanity lives on

Caught in the act
History repeats itself so often
Unpatented acts of humanity
The same brutality displayed
The same undeclared evil intentions
Unprovoked and unparalleled
The dark side of humanity is alive

Caught in the act
Slavery, black Africans commercialized
Holocaust in Germany
Genocide in Rwanda
Apartheid in South Africa
Terrorism in the world
Xenophobia in South Africa
The list continues unabated
The dark side of humanity reincarnated
