evil does not exist

Poem #38 for Tommy Carney

 

Evil Does Not Exist!

 

Sorry, I cannot explain it now

but evil,

driven by spirits and forces

determined to drink blood

and burn flesh forever

is a mythology to aid the acceptance

of an easy solution

to understanding

and curing

the maladies of the human world;

an excuse to disregard the real causes;

a tool perfected over eons

to control a vulnerable, unforgiving mind

 

Shit happens, as the philosophy goes

but please remember

the authority behind the atrocity

is not the devil

is not the product of evil

it is the human will

it is a reaction

from the raw animal nature

that has also contributed to the human evolution

 

As I said,

I cannot explain it now,

but evil

plain and simple

does

not

exist

 

 

-af
