The little monkeys asked their elders, Why Evil on earth never ends, Mankind seems quite incapable, For everyone to live as friends.
Earthly souls are so corrupted, And goodness is seldom known, For Evil has triumphed as usual, Since the first day that it was sown.
Why is Cruelty abundant, Why is everything so unfair, Why do all poor people suffer, Aren't there good folks anywhere?
Alas the wiser elders did reply, Mankind souls have been seduced, By Material things and Self-love, Real Love has sadly been reduced.
If there is ever real Justice, In this world that we all live in, Everything can still be alright, If Morality will reign supreme.
A fun/tongue-in-cheek/philosophical poem from my "curious monkeys" file .... :-) if you don't like the poem, please don't grumble to me .... go grumble with my monkeys.
