We are your worst nightmare

We are the ones poisoning your bodies and souls

We steal and kill without a care

We speak and look like angels but underneath we are trolls

We constantly lie to you with clever words in plain sight

We destroy our own mother for our profit and gain

We do whatever we want because we are always right

We are the ones who enjoy watching you die in pain

We torture the animals and say they have no emotions

We rush to use and do anything that makes cash

We harvest and pollute the oceans

We are the ones who fill the streets and highways with trash

We ridicule you in front of peers and friends to feel superior

We use our faith to justify everything we have said and done

We find a temporary mate to display to make you feel inferior

Behind your back we see many and to you we say you are the one

We say whoever is middle class and below has no taste

We make promises only so we can rule on high

We seduce your hearts in order to get below your waist

We want whoever is different in appearance and thought to die

We set the standards of attraction, society, and life

You ask us why we create such misery and strife

We do this for fun

We do this to live

We do this to rebel

We do this because we can
A poem I did for creative writing a while back. The poem is about the broad evils of humanity and the reasons for those evils are stated in the final four lines. Whether it be out of casual cruelty, for the sake of a job or making money, acting and feeling superior over others, trying to be on top in society, or because of a genuine evil personality, there are many forms and faces of evil in humanity. Sometimes they are easy to spot, sometimes it is hard to tell. Not all evils look the part so long as they can do the act.
