Humans are brilliant creatures.
Never will anyone say we
Do everything wrong.
We are continuing to
Evolve to become better.
No one will believe humans
Are the source of the world’s problems.
People know that we
Live in a utopia.
It is inane to assume we
Will make things worse
Everything we do
Is done out of pure love.
Nothing we do
Is caused by greed and hate.
The life humans lead
Will not succumb to chaos.
No one will say how everything,
EVERYTHING needs to change.

The author's comments:

With Donald Trump gaining hold of Presidency, everything the US stood for will turn to ash. I decided to depict the good of the humanity (we didn't ever really achieve anything prominently good) and the bad of humanity (what the world might probably look like with in the next year with Donald Trump becoming President). In the end, I created a reversal poem which can be read normally (top to bottom) and upside down (bottom to top). Enjoy!
