Why’s the world at war
Affected every corner
Battling a virus
Or ludicrous differences
Self quarantined,
Corporeally each one isolated
Today nothing but superficiality matured
Basis of existence darkened
Distant socially
Aloof emotionally
Attempting to teach a lesson
To the human
To undo learnt animosity,
crime, hatred, cruelty
To time travel
To the era of survival
as any animal
Or any life mortal
Discrimination
when was none
We witness
now teachings nature’s
To unlearn man-made differences,
egocentric ideas, ruthless
From sophistication to ungraduate
To when we were primate
to love unconditionally
revive humanity
is why the world’s at war
at every corner
