LOVE THY BROTHER TO DEATH

Same game.. different players

LOVE THY BROTHER TO DEATH

EARTH’S HISTORY OF HUMANITY,
SOMEONE SAID IT STARTED IN A GARDEN,
EDEN!
MAN FIRST, THEN WOMAN,
THUS THE GENERATIONS BEGAN.

I GUESS THAT MAKES US ALL 
ONE FAMILY, 
IF I READ HISTORY CORRECTLY,
BUT DON’T BLAME ME,
JUST LOOK AT THE FAMILY TREE.

THEN HATRED OF A BROTHER,
A MURDER UNDERCOVER,
BORN OF THE SAME FATHER 
AND MOTHER,
THE END OF LIFE FOREVER.

WHO IS GOD?
WE ARE OUR OWN gods..
NO SUCH THING AS CREATED BEINGS,
WE EVOLVED ON THE SCENE,
THEN EVOLUTION OF HUMANITY CEASED,
NOW WE PROCREATE
THE SAME WAY WE HATE.

LOVE THY BROTHER TO DEATH 
UNTIL CIVILIZATION ENDS,
WHY PRETEND WE ARE FRIENDS,
FOREVER FOLLOWING THE PATH
OF KILL!  KILL!  KILL! AND KILL AGAIN.

WILFORD BARKER.

The bible says we are all born in his image, I've always troubled by how good that image can possibly be when I observe...us...who are born in his image.
