(In)humanity

© Jairus Reflections

I am a bar of milk chocolate -

In the hands of (innocent) little children.

I was purposed to put smiles on their faces.

But I’ve become the source of their scuffle.

They don’t seem to know.

If only they would share with one another –

Everyone could have a piece.

I am an emergency exit of a college library.

It is the first time that I have ever been employed.

I was designed to allow everyone to escape the fire.

But my usefulness has been undermined by their selfishness.

They don’t seem to know.

If only they would just help each other –

They could all survive.

I am the written will of a deceased tycoon –

In the hands of (mature) children adults.

I was written by Mr. Foal Lee to bless his offspring.

But because of me, they have started to curse each other.

They don’t seem to know.

If only they would count their blessings –
They would be truly blessed.
