Mankind really baffles me, and I’ve never understood.
How some can be so hateful yet others be so good.
DNA I hear you say, it’s all down to the genes.
But surely nurture matters or the lack of it, it seems.
At what age does it manifest, they way we’re going to be.
The good or bad that’s in us, when do we start to see.
Children can be cruel but they have yet to learn.
Do we ignore the warnings, no reason for concern?
Is how we are a lottery, just a toss of a god’s big dice.
One to three your nasty, four to six your nice?
But surely it’s not black and white we’ve all got both inside.
It’s just to me the good in some is what they choose to hide.
I wish I had the answer, but I know I’m very sure.
In this world where evils winning we need to find a cure.
