I watched you hunter gatherers, searching across Africa's sun scorched landscape. Watched you as you settled upon Ur..Then I asked. "Who are these people?"

I watched as your civilisation expanded, until the Earth seethed with man...Then I watched your wars...Killing of your fellow man.

I watched as Greeks and Romans dominated warfare, killing tens of thousands...

I watched as morals disintegrated, until global war began.
Trenches, machine guns and lastly gas chambers.

Then I saw Hiroshima and Nagasaki being destroyed. A mushroom cloud rising over a devastated land.

I watched the Cold War heat up, die down. I watched as man calmed down.

I watched as the Arab Spring arrived. As a wave of destruction swept the land.

I watched as Syria detonated...

Today, in my safe place, I watch as man crosses the brink. Descending into the depths of hell. Of purgatory.

I watch and weep for a species that promised so much, and delivered such Earth scorching evil.
