this is a fine piece of social commentary! looking at the world with different eyes and valuing it differently as our own.
thank you for sharing!

Comment from CR Delport
I think man holds too much power as it is. No wonder the world is in such chaos, and it is only getting worse. This is another very well written poem.

Hi Gary, yet another piece of excellent writing, but may I say, that unlike your other wonderful poetry, this one seems to finish abruptly, it's as though there was another couple of lines and they have been omitted, well, perhaps it's me misreading it, after all it is very early.

So welcome Gary.

I believe that every person has God-given goodness in his or her heart. I also believe that, for now at least, our world, as we know it, is in the hands of a mighty adversary. I believe that at the RIGHT time this horrid foe will be defeated. He and his countless minions.
Visitors from another planet or galaxy would likely tremble in terror when seeing our world as it is.
Your poem is well-written and wise. It asks vital questions!

Woman's balance love or war, what status does she hold
Women unfortunately do not have the balance of power in decision making, therefore it is the macho vote every time.
aliens would not be impressed with us at all, the selfish gene that evolved in us it quite evident.
Well done, Mary

Comment from Dean Kuch
Nicely done, gary. You've asked a very pertinent and compelling question in your well metered and rhymed poetic query. What would an alien race think of mankind having met up with him for the first time? Would they be friend, or foe? Would you, as men, see these invaders as a threat, or a Godsend that we can glean new information and technologies from?
I personally feel that alien races, were they to exist, would take one look at how devastating cruel we are to our own species, and fly away as fast as they could. They would avoid us like the Bubonic Plague...
Well done~Dean

Being created in the image of God, Man has the ability to create, but in a much lesser degree. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words.

Hi GW,
Great questions in this poem. As is the artwork spot on.
I notice some of your sentences end with a '?' and some no punctuation at all. Is that intentional or oversight?
As always a really good and though provoking piece.
Cheers & Blessings
