Homo Sapiens Poem by Dr Kamran Haider Bukhari

Homo Sapiens



We are hopeless, helpless and worthless creatures,
Designed to err…
We cut the throat of our own brother,
And drink his blood;
Because we are thirsty by nature…

Sadness is a gift for us,
Because as humans;
We are predisposed to melancholy…
We love pain and misery,
And we spread pain and misery;
Like an infection…
We can never be happy;
When we make one of our own soul cry….

We hear voices from outside,
But are deaf to our inner noise…
We speak irrelevantly,
Whenever questioned by our hidden soul…
We are morally dead,
Though intoxicated by man-made religion…

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

I totally agree about man made religion. The man made grit and accumulations need to be pushed aside and use the simple truth of love and what goes around, comes around. Your poem is bitter and yet strong... Karin Anderson
