A world stained by hate

A world stained by hate

A Poem by Rob Santana

A world filled with darkness
Where the blind lead the insane,
Remains of charred corpses
On display throughout
the cities of the damned
We all have been stained by hate,
Embrace mankinds history
That has been written in blood

Yes history seems to be repeating itself these days, sad. Thanks again Pax.
The thin line between love and hate...yet here your theme is for hate...the fallible humans that we are...we continue to be self-destructive in our mentality...only when another entity comes forth to challenge us...do we band as brothers in arms...yet an entity is more intelligent to ever want to make contact with us and keep within a safe distance in light years...as to never make that happen...

you're welcome...
This is great in fact the words are a bit addicting. It is precisely there where the challenge lays. One thing is to feel hate the other to act upon in a hateful manner one may achieve success in pointing something , fighting for something the other will face you and consume you. Really is all crafted in this words. Mankind writing history in blood damn it! As we speak , not even the excuses need hate now they just flow.Facing what consumes you is one way to be free. Released from those poisonous fears.
Resurrected once and for all.

Is that time coming?

Thankyou Rob

How true that is man.
It is so much easier for some people to hate than to love.And hate and violence just begets more.Times have changed so much from where people gave a damn about each other.Very honest and true write Rob :)

It grows increasingly difficult to swallow all the BS in the world.
Can't we all just get along? No...

It's in our nature as humans to be destructive. It's so sad but true. History has proven it. :(
