So Stupid

Stars won’t show us the right way if we continue to explore them
Doors won’t open up if we slaughter their handles
Men won’t walk if we stop manufacturing brown sandals
Pigeons don’t fly to make peace, they live like us
But they surly don’t kill themselves with plastic rifles or real guns

Bitter olives won’t become sweet
War survivors won’t say they want to retreat
Brave people won’t share their feelings, they think they’re tough
But when a cat climbs upon a tree, they afraid they’ll muff  

Buttered enemies won’t fight a pot
Two football players won’t struggle for the main spot
Just kidding, utopian team
Except the manager no one knows how to swim
  
Faults won’t occur if we don’t make mistakes
Don’t butcher cows, human beings don’t need stakes
If only we were cowards, no one would’ve died
If we voyaged to a parallel world, maybe we could see the other good side

Moons won’t light earth if we say we can reach them and play their role  
We offend nature when we travel through space, which always wants to be in control
Gypsies won’t flute if we haunt them like witches
Criminals won’t escape If they don’t look suspicious

Peace won’t call us if we forever say no
Children won’t be adults if parents don’t let them grow
Hunger won’t spread if we give something from ourselves
Religious people go to church just to hear the ringing bells


Give me your card, I’ll sign behind
How could I be so stupid and be a part of the human kind.

welcome to the site. This poem was pretty good, I especially liked
"Doors won’t open up if we slaughter their handles
Men won’t walk if we stop manufacturing brown sandals " great way to word it, keep on writing.
