The Ramblings Of A Mad Man Poem by Liam Hughes

I watch the speeches urging for peace by actors in movies and thinkers in life. I think why can't we all live this way and feel this way. I think to myself its because of nature. Nature is to blame. Its because nature lives within us, it keeps our minds harsh, it makes us cut down our rivals because they may rise further than we are able. We feel we should always be the one that goes further than the last being in who's wake we tread. In nature when a tree is felled it gives way to others to make their mark, to stamp their stamp. We do not live by natures rules, we do not adhear to their calling in every day life. Which is why I ask why. Why do we fell people to make way for others. You can't just cut away at hatred to expect love to take its place. Maybe I'm just not thinking the right way. Maybe I'm an evolutionary dead end. Maybe my kind is dying. Is there something I must do or is this burden to be given to the next man who thinks the way I do. Is there anyone today who thinks the way I do. Am I the last of a dying breed. Am I the last of a dying breed.
