'' That's The Nature Of The Human Being '' Poem by Bri Mar

'' That's The Nature Of The Human Being ''



Thinking of bad,
Does drive you mad,
But I'll tell you something that's true,
It's a human fad,
We do like the sad,
It is what most of us do.

Ask yourself why,
Now don't dare deny,
Of sad news we are the masters,
We do love a lie,
On them we rely,
We do love to read of disasters.

Someone falls,
You'll hear our calls,
Then ask, what you doing for afters,
It really galls,
But it never stalls,
We laugh right up to the rafters.

Every disgrace,
Lights up our face,
We revel in the subject of scandal,
We all embrace,
The thrill of the chase,
From the elite to the common vandal.

Evil deeds,
Our desire it feeds,
From killing to wars and theft,
The viewer reads,
As another bleeds,
We don't think of those left bereft.

Though there's more good,
We prefer the crude,
Catastrophes are what we love seeing,
Choose peace or a feud,
We prefer what's lewd,
