Humanity's Story Poem by Tariq Alkaritty

Once upon a time,
When love knew -
No bounds and shackles
We dwelt in Eden

Then, the conception of the ego
Spewed wide open Pandora's Box
And its burdens and horrors
All, adventurously, flew forth

Now all humanity is in wake
Of a teardrop they await
Straight from heaven's gates
Pondering over the Lord's grace

But lead and sulphur,
Stirred in a lake - do burn
Where all hell is unleashed
Upon the earth from beneath.
