MANKIND

Why do they call us Mankind
isn't that a misnomer
an oxymoron
we are definitely not kind
in any sense of the word
our wars
our words
our mean Tweets
say the opposite
our unkindness toward each other
makes little sense
yet it persists through the ages
making a mockery of kindness
we are the bad examples
of our kind.
