Written In Evil History Dripping Blood Poem by Terence George Craddock

Written In Evil History Dripping Blood



Josef Mengele vile Angel of Death at Auschwitz
seized an opportunity to conduct genetic research
on living human subjects without anesthesia pain
killers experiments focused primarily on children
twins no regard to health safety survival of victims
Mengele a monster without mercy proves dangers
to human virtue a deadly deceit intertwined Business
without ethics Nazi policy war profits proves Science...

without humanity is mammon love of money was
Religion without sacrifice a Nazi disease religion;
religion is supposed to love comfort feed shelter
compassion spread enlightenment serve the poor
the desperate the homeless the abandoned hopeless
aid heal the sick not take exploit kill greed pursuit of gain...

how are crime heinous dangers to human virtue achieved?
once with power tyrants emperors kings ruthless rulers
in vote casting modern age corrupt Politics without principle
take a minute two three minutes fill in a few gaps yourselves
shed a little light on business bank corporation wealth manipulation
where does wasted tax money go in bribes wars shoddy construction...

there are a few extreme danger consequences
inhuman interactive integrated consequences

caused by submitting

to Seven Dangers to Human Virtue

Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience,
Knowledge without character, Business without ethics,
Science without humanity, Religion without sacrifice,
Politics without principle, an Unholy alliance;

the consequences of this unholy alliance
is written in dark history dripping blood;

is written in evil history dripping blood;
