Weaponry evolution And our Future. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Ancient man hunted
animals with sharp stones,
Knives, daggers and tridents
to satisfy hunger.
Later on bow, arrow, gun
were invented to slay
those lives with reduced
effort and labour.

Science and technology
armed us with weapons
of mass destruction
to decimate total creation.
From hunting men used
weaponry in crime,
law enforcement, self defence
and war-fare mission.

Still engaged in vigorous research
to massacre all in a nation
without leaving any trace
of identification.
Insatiable longing has been
amplified to invite
apocalypse and self destruction.

Nuclear, chemical and biological
arsenals have been stockpiled
in large numbers.
Man is now the greatest enemy
of himself and of Nature
to ensure own dark future.

Artificial intelligence and
computer Almighty created drones driving man-kind
to dystopia.
Vast majority would rejoice if
an unfailing cure can be included,
by any human brain,
in pharmacopoeia.
