Evil Walks Poem by Kevin Patrick

Evil Walks

Rating: 5.0

When you obey
A rule
Know matter
How vile and cruel
Then you become
A fool
Just Another monsters
tool



When you follow
With submission
An authority
Without condition
Then you
Give permission
To atrocities
Exhibitions


When you decide
Whose subhuman
And condem them
To exclusion
Then you create
Your contribution
To the final
Solution




You think your
goodness
Is some purity of light
But it's nothing
More then a halo
Made of maggots delight


History
Of humanity
Has taught me
this calamity


That Evil
Walks
In the show
Of everyman
Who thinks himself
Pure and good
When knowone
Is pure and good

Reading the poem, I envision someone else; then I read your comment and realize it's all of us.
