Questiuon for all , if you respond please post your own answer...........

Are We Cancer?

Every Tom Dick and Harry Lime propagating infection of the masses, all races and classes.
Not many with a clean bill of mental health, but many do excuse themselves.
Evidence abundant of miswired brains when we ourselves the crossfire does claim.

Our enviroment polluted and moral banks looted.
Many pride themselves on being suited and booted.
Not enought concern for air quality but plenty of time for frivolity.
Free time wasted instead of individuals self educated.

Count yourselves as one of the many or one of the few, regardless this world belongs to me and you.
Junkies kick habits every day but we tell human nature to remain in decay.

Sollutions are simple unless the person next to you states otherwise, their friendly advice "use the demise to capitalise".
True costs are seldom counted but clean living a bird currently grounded.

Some say we are a cancer, I guess thats their choice to be.
Cancer doesnt have a choice but I do you see.

Very thought provoking poem, I wouldn't say humanity is Cancer, but a sickness that can be cured, and the cure is will power my friend.

everyday a new chapter begins,
   some lines empty the same ole story, some fill new
though some characters end there is always new growth,
that's History .....

what we do with that growth is evolution

how we address the "wrongs" should be a solution


.... there's where your cancer lies
a compelling write
