Anthology Submission; Man Versus Nature Poem "A Necessary Evil"


A "Necessary" Evil 

Who Knows 
What is "necessary"?  
When we tumble, 
Out of that Dark Place, 
Stark awake; 
Memory slips away 
As the shameful flow 
Of Prudence fills our minds 
With the Tools necessary 
To instinctively know 
How to help ourselves; 
For the depths of 
Unknowing happens 
Multiple times in our lives 
However, strange Birds 
That fly on the wings 
Of "Wisdom" 
Allows us to rise Again; 
To rise with Power and 
Knowledge... 
Despite the fact that 
We are haunted  
By what is a 
Necessary Evil.
