We don’t deserve to be here

the story of creation
screams how calm
nature was before the
making of a man who
ruins everything he meets.

felling of trees, poaching
improperly trashing dirt,
inconveniencing the habitat
of nature that we met here.

gaslighting the fragile,
guilt-tripping the innocent,
frustrating to depression,
being a cause of suicide,
inconveniencing the species
we should share here with.

these are the traits of some
that make you wonder if they
do it unconsciously or the heart
of a man is black -as black.
some do not deserve to be here,
we are just lucky to bear humans.
