an observant alien intelligent species
studying humanity would be puzzled
by humanity rejecting redemption
choosing so often evil opposites
the opposite being acidic conditions like
blasphemy castigated condemnation
corruption contamination damnation
perplexed intelligent aliens
are observation disturbed puzzled
why would focus earth species
consists of global spanning civilizations
choose to be sealant selfish communities
indifferent repulsive vile choice choosing
unclean options debasing defilement desecration
a hostility execrating species put under curse
acts perversion cruel torture deeds horrific worse
profanity of created in image of their God
judgement punishment views humanity
angels record transgressions species stain
violation of laws created to protect
humankind from violence injustice
acts of terror torture cruelty revenge
why would a species choose to be so unclean
so corrupt to treat others within their species
with such cruelty inflicting inhumanity upon
humanity a cold-bloodedness debt inflicted
upon collective human soul heartlessness
the impenitence mercilessness ruthlessness
abandonment neglect of poor weak helpless
without pity remorse guilt an unfulfillment
abandoning any quest to seek find redemption
salvation forsaken for the eternity of future souls
