HUMANITY


It is darkest hour in our history,

Dark nights shrouded with mystery,

Keeping under heels and making mockery,

Liberty torch shine but under label of slavery,


We may hide cruel face under facial,

Abuses hurl and utterances very racial,

Delicate phase but survival very crucial,

Efforts needed nor normal but very special,

Colour cast, creed based on ethnic entity,

Human race can’t maintain proper continuity,

Change in attitude and mental state,

Can’t risk entire race to a dangerous fate,



Thousands of people flee homeland and live,

Constant fear for life and prepared to dive,

Decades of struggle not paying any result,

More poverty, inhuman treatment and insult,

Holocaust, partition and burning of homes,

Green pastures and forest reserve in flames,

Not sparing nature and still more blames,

Is it deliberate attempt to play dirty games?



Still we not miss a chance for double speak,

Invade on neighbours, who are feeble and weak,

Impose terms so as to strangulate and muffle,

Win a war without bloodshed and scuffle,


Is it simple fight between black and white?

We still can understand it is mere a fight,

Still we can see ray of hope and light,

Solve the mystery even with wrong or right,


Destruction everywhere to impose ideology,

Unbalancing act to disturb core and ecology,

Forcing millions to accept the domain,

Count more dead or sub duly remain,


On each day of passing we will witness,

Arrogance more and vanishing politeness,

Harshness more and little softness,

Still lies hope for ascending goodness.

... _Very Thought Provoking_ This was a fifteen year old boy.... He was caught stealing bread from a store. On trying to escape from the hold of the guard, a shelf of the store was also broken. *The judge heard the crime and asked the boy, “Did you really steal something, a loaf of bread and cheese?”* The boy responded by looking down.;- “Yes.” Judge: - “Why?” Boy: - “I needed it.” Judge: - “Couldn't you have bought?” Boy: - “There was no money.” Judge: - “Take it from the family.” Boy: - “There is only a mother in the house. Sick and unemployed, Bread and Cheese were also stolen for the same.” Judge: - “You don't do anything?” Boy: - “Used to wash a car. When I took a day off to take care of my mother, I was fired.” Judge: - “Don’t you ask someone for help?” Boy: - “Had left the house since morning, went to about fifty (50) people, but no help; so, I decided to take this step at the very end.” When the arguments ended, the judge began to pronounce the verdict; ... “the theft a...

Rape

By Akerele Sewa Deborah     Rape, unlawful sexual activity, most often involving sexual intercourse, against the will of the victim through force or the threat of force or with an individual who is incapable of giving legal consent because of minor status, mental illness, mental deficiency, intoxication, unconsciousness, or deception. In many jurisdictions, the crime of rape has been subsumed under that of sexual assault.  Rape was long considered to be caused by unbridled sexual desire, but it is now understood as a pathological assertion of power over a victim The legal definition of rape has changed substantially since the late 20th century.
