Fraught With Danger

 

All that exists is the divine invention of nature's creation 

in its profound wonders and complexity. And then there 

is the nature of humanity among other animals in a slender

slice of the universe, variegated and sublime. From the 

very primeval era of humanity to the present we share 

our world with animals whose proximity to mankind 

has always been fraught with danger, and so we maintain

a measure of safe distance in the preservation of life 

theirs and ours. A conundrum has arisen that among 

humans exist pathological dangers inherent in life 

among psychopaths not merely random deranged 

individuals but entire groups who manifest a clear and 

present threat to others. Calling themselves Palestinians

they roam in raucous mobs threatening and abusing 

those among whom they live, not averse to disrupting 

society in their unreasoning passion for victimhood 

they claim is theirs while victimizing entire cities and 

national coherence in their insistence that another far

distant country be destroyed, its people banished

from life so that the victims may avail themselves

of that which is not theirs. Their victory of persuasion 

will not suffice to temper their rage for they will be 

forever victims finding other rage-inducing targets  

upon whom to vent their fanaticism including those 

adherents who have cleaved to their psychosis prepared 

to support violence against others, oblivious they are 

next until such time sane society exerts itself to

erect a distance between human raptors' intent to kill.
