God And Devil Poem by MAHTAB BANGALEE

God And Devil

Rating: 4.8


Kill one man, and you are a murderer.
Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror.
Kill them all, and you are a god
- Jean Rostand (French biologist)


Where is God
Where is Devil
In my belief,
In my imagination

All are words; no existence I find
without human thinking power

Some words are defined as holy,
Some are defined as black magic
Everywhere I'm in hypnotized trick

Two names are acquainted without any seen existence
-God and Devil!
Whereas the two have existed in one seen existence
- Money; that is money
Who knows its utility he becomes God and Devil's accompany

It's all how we see, we are flooded with ideas, words, stories and what not yet it is our own call what we do in the end. A thought provoking poem.

You are making a good point, but this comes out prose rather than poetry. The argument lacks poetic expression, but it gives something to think about.

A feeling is intangible as is love. Do they exist? Gods and devils, man made or something far more sinister. And then there is money, power and greed. Thoughtful write! Loved the introductory quote.

Money is God; Money is Devil! Money is life giver; Money is killer! - if you kill the entire lives of the universe then you are God! - Geat that's; thought provoking
